Looks beautiful!

Looks beautiful!

Thanks

@Wolfshappen what theme is that? Them WiFi, volume and battery icons have android's material design.

Papirus, yep.

Not bad :3

And, ew, Telegram compression.

Harsh.

Wooooow awesome wallpaper, i want It :o

But KDE settings...

You can install the module to tweak SDDM, and the other way around. You can use KDE without using SDDM. The module for SDDM might install Systemsettings but not the desktop. They're independent programs.

I meant, it's easier to tweak sddm via KDE's settings.

I like that wallpaper!

Yeah. But System Settings and KDE as desktop are independent.

You'll get a system settings as a wrap for SDDM tweaking tool, and nothing else. If you'd wanted to login in KDE it won't be possible because the desktop is not installed.

Anyone use Spotify??

Love that wallpaper, man!!!

I know because I already tried these things @buredoRUNofthecyborg

Anyone use Spotify??

Me, but on Debian. Why?

Noice!!! I probably would too, if I didn't love gdm with all my black heart..

GDM is so... unusable

It's impossible to tweak. Windows offer more options than that.

And that's saying a lot

I'm curious now, does i3 offer a dm?

Is it a desktop?

i3WM. .

Last time I checked, It's an awesome window manager

I'm happy with the default ootb ux atm, and I think you can edit some stuff with dconf...

I'm in need of an station. But I'm very close on going Spotify cause of hulu

Thank you very much

I kind of really really doubt that.

Ty :D

I kind of really really doubt that.

How do you tweak GDM? Where is the tool to do that? I'll be happy to try.

It's doable, in an annoyingly hackish and extensive way by comparison.

I'm happy with the default ootb ux atm, and I think you can edit some stuff with dconf...

Yeah, but it quickly bores me and there is no way to change background or theme or whatever. DConf is not an option, even if there's something related to GDM, it's all text, how do you know if it looks good or not?

In short: it's not possible.

In short: it's not possible.

Realistically, pretty much.

I've heard it is possible by unpacking default gdm theme, tweaking it and pack it back

That's how canonical and system76 did it, right?

Doesn't canonical still use lightdm

And system76 uses the elementary one which I think is also lightdm

I've heard it is possible by unpacking default gdm theme, tweaking it and pack it back

I'm not going to do that. It's a stupid way of overcomplicating others' life. I just use LightDM and GDM may well end in the rubbish bin.

Unfortunately is not available for all OS, just Elementary.

you can try this one @Kohane https://gravit.io

That's how canonical and system76 did it, right?

Idk I've read that on Arch wiki :)

Doesn't canonical still use lightdm

No, Ubuntu uses GNOME now, with GDM as the DM.

LightDM is still maintained and used, by other projects as well.

Yup

Idk I've read that on Arch wiki :)

Me too!!! Afaict, canonical did the same thing after system76 did.

Yeah, but it quickly bores me and there is no way to change background or theme or whatever. DConf is not an option, even if there's something related to GDM, it's all text, how do you know if it looks good or not?

The lockscreen image or what,m

You change that in the settings - and the login is hold grey after sliding away the wallpaper so you cant accidentally make it hard to click the fields by choosing similarily contrasted images.

BEAUTIFUL

BEAUTIFUL

Yeah, its going in the wallpaper archive :3

lovely!

I love being sent beautiful wallpapers if anyone has more so feel free to pm for that with hi-res images :P

The lockscreen image or what,m

Everything. But not the lockscreen. The GDM itself.

The lockscreen IS gdm. I can only imagine that they grey background on login is done intentionally.

The lockscreen image or what,m

lockscreen isn't excactly the same as the greeter background

I knew i once thought mints html login themes were awesome and fancy but leaving me without a working login after an update made me settle on simple and default.

lockscreen isn't excactly the same as the greeter background

Yes, the lockscreen works once you're logged in.

Exactly

Which, especially on a one-user system, it'd be way better to have it optionally apply to login screen

lockscreen isn't excactly the same as the greeter background

I know, and the greeter has stylish grey noise - you can never miss the login fields or accidentally theme the fields off-screen.

ERROR: S client not available

Sure, but there's other colors, gradients, and images in general that would still be fine for this.

My point is: GDM is not confgurable. I can't change its appearance. I can't change background or style or fonts or anything. It's fixed whether I like it or not, forever and ever.

This!

Finally wrote the F28 beta image to my flash drive. Testing time! :D

OMG, I wonder if I can get GIFs working under LightDM ?

I guess i'm just too burned by customizing going to cost me yet another reinstall always in the end.

Isn't it a piracy to basically illegal gather, store and share content?..

Uh, kinda

omfg!

There's more specific definitions to piracy

Any part of that. Not all three together but each single one already is

I tried long ago but they were still. I don't know now. Before that, GIFs weren't an accepted format.

omfg!

how cool is that even!

This is awesome on so many levels

Last time I got into a situation because of customising stuff (I used a rather old theme in KDM), I solved it with a live ISO. It's just retouching a file so I didn't lose anything. And that was years ago, when KDM was default.

I tried with antergos and mint when i was 15, bloody beginner and set the "gears" html login screen.

I wouldn't even have known how to open a terminal to restore the already downloaded iso to another usb stick - luckily i still had the install stick.

https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/62500/how-to-configure-gdm-login-screen-background/ Also, seems possible. Just a matter of editing or adding to a file.

It is an old question, I don't think it is as easy as in the answer now

Neither I. I just booted with the live ISO (a CD back in the moment) and changed the file that says "this is the default theme". Then I restarted and happy again. After that, I deleted the offensive theme.
