Well yes; that tab is one of the two tabs that do not work yet! (I was talking "right" after all then). You can change it under Decoration!

Re: gdm2setup in Arch isn't working
But it's not the same thing.
This is why I'm so pissed at it right now. I can't change the theme overall. They've taken away my power of choice.
I could change that in custom.conf if I could just remember the code under the theme section to.

I can change the theme and I can change the icons. Even if it is not the same procedure you can do a lot with it. So the power of choice is there. But you may need a bit more "power of work". 
It is not as easy as just picking a theme I'll give you that.

Yeah, see that's the thing about current Gnome/GDM as compared to the old Gnome/GDM.
I need to figure what I put in that "Greeter" and "Theme" section of custom.conf - once I do that, I'll have it made.

# gdm2setup
File "/usr/bin/gdm2setup", line 43
from gdm2.gdm2setup import GDM2Setup

TabError: inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentationCare to explain this one anyone? Did they forget to build against python2 like they did with postgresql?

I haz a problem with this. I like to be able to see what I'm changing to before I go write it down in some config file, when it comes to display options (as in how things will look and feel).
One of the very few times I would ever ask. Is there a GUI to configure it with? I've installed a bazillion slim themes - I'd like to know what the one I'm choosing for the config file looks like, so I can pick & choose.
b1o wrote:The config file to Viking60 should now work with autologin with multiple desktop environments
Don't do auto login, but I do timed login. Is there an option for that? Edit: Nope, there sure isn't! Dang! Any way I can write that option in?
Also, what if I want some weird-arse super effed-up theme like my famous Happy Feet avatar, or Harry Potter?
Or maybe Stewie?
Thanks.
