+
+## Introduction to WINGs Display Manager
+
+The WDM package contains a display manager based on WINGs toolkit from
+Window Maker.
+
+This package is known to build and work properly using a ZiomekOS 26.9.26
+platform.
+

+
+## Additional Download
+
+### Debian package source tarball
+
+This download is needed for patches.
+
+Download: http://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/w/wdm/wdm_1.28-27.debian.tar.xz
+
+## WDM Dependencies
+
+### Required
+
+Window Maker 0.96.0 (for WINGs), xdm 1.1.17 (for up to date configuration), BLFS Boot Scripts 20250225 (for xdm boot script)
+
+## Installation of WDM
+
+Extract patches 1 to 11 from the Debian source tarball into `patches` directory.
+
+Apply patches:
+
+```
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/01_kfreebsd.patch
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/02_fix_login_overflow.patch
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/03_autoconf.patch
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/04_manpage_indent.patch
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/05_french_translation_name.patch
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/06_login_composite.patch
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/07_ld_no_add_needed.patch
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/08_do_not_use_dev_mem.patch
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/09_pam_session.patch
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/10_spelling_fixes.patch
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/11_usr_bin_X11_removal.patch
+patch -Np1 -i ../patches/12_make_it_compile_on_lfs.patch
+```
+
+Since `configure.ac` has been changed, you need to rebuild `configure`:
+
+```
+autoreconf -i
+```
+
+Install WDM by running the following commands:
+
+```
+./configure \
+      --prefix=/usr \
+      --datadir=/usr/share \
+      --sysconfdir=/etc/X11 \
+      --localstatedir=/var/lib/wdm \
+      --with-gfxdir=/usr/share/pixmaps \
+      --enable-shadow \
+      --enable-pam \
+      --enable-aafont \
+      --with-pamdir=/etc/pam.d \
+      --with-wdmdir=/etc/X11/wdm \
+      --with-nlsdir=/usr/share/locale &&
+make
+```
+
+This package does not come with a test suite.
+
+Now, as the _root_ user:
+
+```
+make install
+```
+
+## Configuring WDM
+
+**NOTE**: All the actions in this section must be executed as _root_.
+
+First, you need to update WDM config to make it inline with modern Xorg. I found the best way to do it, is just use what's delivered OOTB by xdm:
+
+```
+cp -v /etc/X11/xdm/{GiveConsole,TakeConsole,Xaccess,Xreset,Xresources,Xservers,Xsession,Xsetup_0,Xstartup,Xstartup} /etc/X11/wdm/
+```
+
+xdm starts `xconsole` in `Xsetup_0`, which means an ever-present window on your desktop. You may want to comment out that line :).
+
+Next, you need to create WDM's `authdir`:
+
+```
+install -m0700 -o root -g root /etc/X11/wdm/authdir
+```
+
+You'll also need PAM configuration for WDM:
+
+```
+cat > /etc/pam.d/wdm << "EOF"
+#%PAM-1.0
+
+# Block login if they are globally disabled
+auth      required pam_nologin.so
+
+# Load environment from /etc/environment and ~/.pam_environment
+auth      required pam_env.so
+
+# Use /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow for passwords
+auth      required pam_unix.so
+
+# Check account is active, change password if required
+account   required pam_unix.so
+
+# Allow password to be changed
+password  required pam_unix.so
+
+# Setup session
+session   required pam_unix.so
+session   optional pam_systemd.so
+EOF
+```
+
+Finally, install `.xsession` for _root_ and make it executable:
+
+```
+cat > /root/.xsession << "EOF"
+#!/usr/bin/env /bin/bash
+exec /usr/bin/twm
+EOF
+```
+
+```
+chmod 755 /root/.xsession
+```
+
+## Boot Script
+
+**NOTE**: All the actions in this section must be executed as _root_.
+
+To start WDM automatically when the system is switched to runlevel 5, you'll need to install the `/etc/rc.d/init.d/xdm` script and the `/etc/sysconfig/xdm` configuration file included in the _blfs-bootscripts-20250225_ package:
+
+```
+make install-xdm
+```
+
+Adjust the `/etc/sysconfig/xdm` to use WDM:
+
+```
+cat > /etc/sysconfig/xdm << "EOF"
+# Which display manager to use (full path):
+# DISPLAY_MANAGER=/usr/sbin/gdm
+# DISPLAY_MANAGER=/usr/sbin/lxdm
+DISPLAY_MANAGER=/usr/bin/wdm
+# DISPLAY_MANAGER=/usr/bin/sddm
+
+# Options to pass to the display manager:
+DM_OPTIONS=""
+EOF
+```
+
+## Starting WDM
+
+WDM can be started from the command line as the root user:
+
+```
+telinit 5
+```
+
+## Starting WDM on boot
+
+To start WDM on boot, adjust `/etc/inittab` to set _5_ as the default runlevel:
+
+```
+id:5:initdefault:
+```
+
+## Debugging WDM
+
+WDM is a pretty old piece of software, largely outdated in the context of a modern system like LFS. As such, there can be potential issues.
+
+By default, WDM logs to `/var/log/xdm-errors.log` and that's the first place to look for issues.
+
+In any case, if you need to validate your display manager setup, you can adjust `/etc/sysconfig/xdm` to switch to xdm and validate your overall environment is sane.
+
+For the (default) _NoChange_ WM choice, each user will need an `.xsesion` file in their home directory, to start the selected window manageger or desktop environment.
