   Well, you got me there. My point was, that PAM is somewhat new in   
   Slackware and, once things reach a certain critial mass, everyone has to   
   jump on board with it. Such was the case with udev, PAM, dbus,   
   etc. systemd will be like this.   
      
   Here's the thread I was referring to yesterday:

   It is the login manager. For now.
