Wrong cursor theme (Breeze) gets set on LightDM Login Screen #11

Closed fossfreedom closed 7 years ago

fossfreedom commented 7 years ago

our default on the desktop is DMZ-White - on the lightdm login screen it defaults to breeze - probably this is because we now package both breeze and dmz-cursors - and maybe the lastone installed wins.

Need to look at the greeter config file and add the cursor override - assuming there is such a thing.

In my opinion, Breeze is definitely a better theme than DMZ-White . Any possibility for a bug turned feature? :grin:

fossfreedom commented 7 years ago

for the moment I've reverted this - breeze has to be manually installed. Yeah - a bug report on lightdm-gtk-greeter needs to be raised if its not already. The only way this will be implemented though if someone gets their hands dirty and supply a code-patch.

There is a dirty fix for this. Go to /usr/share/icons/default and open index.theme with an editor.

Change Inherits to Inherits=DMZ-White

@darim92 many thanks for this - very useful to know.

From a packaging point of view though - have my doubts this would be possible to-do [messing around with a delivered file from another package]. It would be much better to get this fixed correctly in lightdm via a code-patch. I seemed to remember there was a patch floating around somewhere on the interwebs - no idea of its status though in terms of getting it incorporated into lightdm-gtk-greeter.

closing - we've moved on to slick-greeter and breeze looks odd with this.
