Hello, after I ran into some issues installing 10.3 on my x86_64 system (for some reason the GRUB installation failed, rendering the machine unable to boot...), I tried something more trivial: I wanted to change the KDM background image. So I go to the KDE Control Center, System Administration, Login Manager, where I have the opportunity to specify a wallpaper. I pick one and reboot. The selected background image appears for a split second, but then gets replaced by the default background. I tried this a few times (which is much less painful now thanks to the great boot time!), and my best guess is that the default installation uses the SUSE KDM theme, which overrides the background requested in the KDE Control Center. Was I supposed to know that I had to look in the sysconfig editor for the keyword DISPLAYMANAGER_KDM_THEME? I found it somewhat frustrating that there was a seemingly obvious way to change the background image, but this setting was overridden by a hard to find entry in a key/value file. Is there a GUI-way to change or turn off the KDM theme? I guess I learned something out of this (there is a difference between the KDM background image and the KDM theme), but this wasn't exactly what I expected. There should at least be a warning in the Control Center that the setting might be ignored if a KDM theme has been specified. Also, at least on my system, the Control Center Help does not work in the Login Manager section when I switch to "Adminstrator Mode" (it works when I am a regular user), I get the error message "There is no documentation for /kdm/index.html.". Now that this is settled, I am looking forward to using 10.3, the reduced boot time is just fabulous.
