Removing The Language Menu

Language menu
By default the drop-down Language Menu is located in the top bar. As this may serve no purpose for many users it can easily be removed. Doing so may also improve the appearance of the login screen by consequently providing a cleaner, less cluttered appearance. This is undertaken in the following section, located at the bottom of the LXDM configuration file:
/etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf
## if show language select control
lang=1

All that is required to replace the '1' after the lang= command with a '0':

/etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf
## if show language select control
lang=0

Once your amendments have been completed, you can save your changes and close the configuration file by:

  • nano: Press CTRL and 'x' to exit, 'y' to save, and <enter> to finish, or
  • gedit: Select the 'save' option and then close the window.

The change will be immediate, and may be viewed by simply logging out.

Disabling The User List

The user list
By default, available username(s) will already be listed for selection on the login screen. For added security - and (at least for some users) to improve the appearance of the login screen - this feature can be disabled. In this instance, it will consequently be necessary to manually enter both the username and password to log on. This is undertaken in the following section, located at the bottom of the LXDM configuration file:
/etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf
## if disable the user list control at greeter
disable=0

All that is required to replace the '0' after the disable= command with a '1':

/etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf
## if disable the user list control at greeter
disable=1

Once your amendments have been completed, you can save your changes and close the configuration file by:

  • nano: Press CTRL and 'x' to exit, 'y' to save, and <enter> to finish, or
  • gedit: Select the 'save' option and then close the window.
