I want to program a display manager or my own login program. So that Ubuntu boots up and then comes for example a program that says hello(instead of a Display Manager) and that after the program is finished I am logged in? Where do I put the executable file(I want to write the code with Python)? Is there a way without plymouth?

  • The prior possible-duplicates do meet your requirements I suspect; if used with auto-login. The DM also generally handles user login, so if you plan on doing this too (ie. check the user account & password is valid, then & only then continue) changing plymouth won't be enough, but it does read like you don't want this. – guiverc Apr 09 '19 at 06:55

  • If you have auto-login enabled - then the prior 'possible duplicate' links are exactly what you want - ie. just a plymouth screen, any DM you want & auto-login. The primary reason against plymouth, is you want the coding experience, (why you mentioned python), where I don't know if you can use python in creating a plymouth screen. – guiverc Apr 09 '19 at 07:14
  • Is there also a way without plymouth and with Python? – Elektro22 Apr 09 '19 at 09:27
