High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! XDM is the default display manager for the X Window System. It is a bare-bones X display manager. It was introduced with X11 Release 3 in October 1988, to support the standalone X terminals that were just coming onto the market. It was written by Keith Packard. Because of its lack of user-friendliness, users of GNOME, KDE, Enlightenment or Window Maker tend to use GDM, KDM, Entrance or wdm instead of XDM. XDM has two main files used to define how XDM is displayed, they are Xresources and Xsetup. Xsetup_0 is used to tell XDM how to start-up, and Xresources configures the login window, chooser and XConsole.
