Well I recently stumbled upon the GNOME login screen(want to change it).I found very cool ones here [1] .But when I downloaded,I am unable to use it . using the procedure...? going to - control center>Appearance>click on install>and then select the tar.gz file You may have to un-archive it first. I don't use Gnome so I can't say for sure. I tried but the same thing :( . Anyone else :-) ?
GDM is a full-fledged Gtk app these days [I think]. Therefore it loads its display/theme preferences from its user account like anything else [there is a user account named "gdm"]. You can run the appearance manage for GDM by doing the following in gnome-terminal: $ su Password: $ gnomesu --user=gdm --command="dbus-launch gnome-appearance-properties" When you restart GDM will have your modified preferences. -- Adam Tauno Williams <awilliam@whitemice.org> LPIC-1, Novell CLA <http://www.whitemiceconsulting.com> OpenGroupware, Cyrus IMAPd, Postfix, OpenLDAP, Samba -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
