SLiM automatically looks for session types described by the @file{.desktop}

to choose a session from the log-in screen using @kbd{F1}. Packages such as
@var{xfce}, @var{sawfish}, and @var{ratpoison} provide @file{.desktop} files;
adding them to the system-wide set of packages automatically makes them
available at the log-in screen.
In addition, @file{~/.xsession} files are honored. When available,
@file{~/.xsession} must be an executable that starts a window manager
and/or other X clients.
When @var{allow-empty-passwords?} is true, allow logins with an empty
password. When @var{auto-login?} is true, log in automatically as
@var{default-user} with @var{auto-login-session}.
If @var{theme} is @code{#f}, the use the default log-in theme; otherwise

"Return a service that spawns the GDM graphical login manager, which in turn

@cindex X session
GDM automatically looks for session types described by the @file{.desktop}
files in @file{/run/current-system/profile/share/xsessions} and allows users
to choose a session from the log-in screen using @kbd{F1}. Packages such as
@var{xfce}, @var{sawfish}, and @var{ratpoison} provide @file{.desktop} files;
adding them to the system-wide set of packages automatically makes them
available at the log-in screen.
In addition, @file{~/.xsession} files are honored. When available,
@file{~/.xsession} must be an executable that starts a window manager
and/or other X clients.
When @var{allow-empty-passwords?} is true, allow logins with an empty
password."
