Hi All,

Just wanted to thank everyone who tired to assist me with getting slim to
compile.  It turns out that it was not pthreads at all but instead the gcc
compiler in the CMakeLists.txt file had CMAKE_C_FLAGS set to "-Wall -O2",
but the compiler did not like the "-Wall" setting.  I removed it and
pthreads was found without any problems after which I ran "make" and it
produced the "slim" executable.

On this note of login greeters, I also wanted to look at the
"LightDM-GTK-Greeter" package out in the oi-userland for the sources and
also in the OpenIndiana hipster package manager online.  In looking for
this one, I wanted to see how big the footprint would be since the idea is
to put it on SmartOS as a test and I already have an X-Server, but do not
want a large window manager. I am experimenting with building minimal
ram-based distributions.

In looking at the Hipster package manager I see that this package is
"system_display-manager_lightdm_gtk-greeter.p5i" but I do not know what is
in a p5i file nor how to decompress it to get just the binaries that I can
copy over to test it along with the slim option to see which looks better.

On a good side note, I have installed OpenIndiana on a native partition so
that I can do some development on both the OpenIndiana and SmartOS projects
and REALLY like the OpenIndiana OS running on a native partition. Already,
I am seeing myself rebooting into my previous Ubuntu 18.04 less and less.
If I could find a way so that OpenIndiana could see my Ubuntu 18.04 "ext4"
partition so that I cold access some of those files then I might even try
to stay with running OpenIndiana always. Any ideas on how to see or mount
the partition since the OI file manager does not see it by default.

Cheers and this is off to a great journey with OpenIndiana.
Lonnie
