Hi,

After making some changes to my F15 kickstart file I succeeded in
installing F16 on my laptop. Unfortunately some things that worked in my
F15 kickstart file don't work with F16:

How do I disable the user list (aka face browser) in the F16 GDM startup
screen?

How do I change the background in the F16 GDM startup screen?

How do I show the date in the F16 GDM startup screen

I tried finding the appropriate dconf/gconf voodoo but the Gnome
developers did an excellent job of hiding the solution

Thanks!
Patrick

I cannot speak to anything too new - but in the days of yore - gdm
user list could be turned off via: (ignore line wraps obvioosly).
I long ago switched to kdm where all things are configurable and 'just
work' ... perhaps you tried this and need the new dconf way?

1) remove user list:

gconftool-2 --direct --config-source
xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults --type bool --set
/apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list true

Thank you for your feedback. I tried that one and it did not work.
Perhaps the setting is hidden in dconf. The search continues...

You may want to try kdm - it doesn't have security implications from
information leakage ...
