Where is my old KDM login screen?
Robert Gomułka
everything worked fine until a moth ago or so. After next logon (after
dist-upgrade) I noticed that my KDM screen disappeared and was replaced with
blue one.
I was confused, but left the topic, because I didn't need anything special.
But last time I have decided I miss some functionality. In fact, I wanted to
have possibility to select users from a list, with predefined user and
autocompletion.
However it is no longer available. I have searched google, this list and bugs
list for KDM. In several places I could find information that it has
something to do with desktop-base package. I have
edited /etc/defaults/kdm.d/10_desktop_base:
USETHEME="true"
THEME="/usr/share/apps/kdm/themes/circles"
#old theme /usr/share/apps/kdm/themes/debian-moreblue"
Nothing changed. I have installed kdm theme packages:
ii kde-kdm-themes 2007.01-1 Themes for the K
Display Manager
ii kdm 3.5.5a.dfsg.1-5 X display manager for
KDE
ii kdmtheme 1.1.2-1 theme manager for KDM
Nothing changed. I have tried to select other theme in KDE Configuration
Center, but none offered requested functionality.
Now, the login process looks quite weird. First KDE welcome (splash) screen is
displayed (that's fine). Then it is changed to KDM splash screen selected
with Configuration Center (still fine). Afterwards the brand new background
and login screen jump in (switching background is just ugly IMHO). After
successful logon the brand new background disappears and previous one is
displayed (another background switch :| ).
Would you be so kind and suggest any solution to that?
Best regards,
Robert

To get the old greeter back you have to put
USETHEME="false"
into /etc/defaults/kdm.d/10_desktop_base and then restart kdm.
(run "/etc/init.d/kdm restart" or "invoke-rc.d kdm restart")

Thank you very much - your suggestion was right and fixed my problem.
Previously I have found right place, but did exactly the opposite ;-)
