changes to /etc/lidm.ini not taking effect

Hey there, great project, I like it :)

For some reason any changes I do to lidm.ini in /etc (I copied the default.ini from this repo) do not take effect. Lidm always looks the same. Is the path wrong (I picked it from the README) or must it not be a root file?

I can't reproduce anything broken with it. What edits are you making? You can also change the path of the config tweaking LIDM_CONF, like LIDM_CONF=my/custom/path.ini lidm.

If it still doesn't work you can launch with LIDM_LOG (e.g. LIDM_LOG=/tmp/debug.log lidm) and then you can see some logs about several things including config parsing. Like [I] parsing [behavior.source] as STRING_ARRAY.

Changing Reboot Key from F2 to F3 works. Changing Refresh Key from F5 to NONE or NULL does not work for me.

While testing some settings I noticed the cursor is blinking irregularly with the default interval. Setting the interval to 1000 (1s) slows down the whole screen. E.g. setting it to 2000ms will udpate the clock only every 2s.

Hi, i have the same issue.
I download the "minimal.ini" file from /themes/ folder and moved to /etc/lidm.ini.
If i launch lidm from terminal, it shows the right theme. However, when rebooting my PC, lidm launches automatically before the session with the default theme (black screen and default fonts).

the problem that you're pointing out is not really a problem, read more carefully the README.

Oh, wow, it's not a problem.. That's great.
So, can you help me showing the theme i chose when lidm launches?
I read more carefully the README but still i don't know what i'm doing wrong.
