Description of problem: I didn't work out the reason yet but according to my testing in latest F18 and Rawhide, Awesome no longer appears in the session list in GDM or lightdm when installed. Strange. How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. install awesome and reboot into DM 2. look for it in session selection list Actual results: Awesome does not appear Expected results: Awesome Additional info: It was appearing until recently for F18 until after Beta IIRC.
Seems to be caused by the NoDisplay=true entry in awesome's .desktop file. Already discussing this with upstream, see https://awesome.naquadah.org/bugs/index.php?do=details&task_id=1031. We can patch the desktop file, but I'd like to hear upstream's opinion first.
