Why does rhel10 need lightdm? is xorg-x11-server-Xorg available from either rhel or epel repo's?

We use it with VirtualGL and VNC-based software (Thinlinc) to provide GPU acceleration on headless systems. 
But I realize our current setup might not work with RHEL10, we need to do some testing. So this ticket may have been a bit premature.

Comment 3 adam winberg 2025-11-05 07:54:43 UTC
We have worked around our dependency on lightdm so as of now we no longer have any need for it. Feel free to close if no one else objects.

Comment 4 Troy Dawson 2025-11-19 16:28:06 UTC
Closing this.
If lightdm starts working with wayland, or X11 server makes it to epel10, people can re-open this.
