Cannot find Login Screen in System->Administration

Hi, all

I have gdm and gnome installed and want to change my gdm login screen theme, but I can't find Login Screen setting in System->Administration. Did I forget to install some packages?

Many thanks.

Re: Cannot find Login Screen in System->Administration

No, since gnome 2.28 gdm doesn't have any GUI management tool ( as far as I know... )
( this is a bit strange to me too, since gdm is essentially a GUI being )

see the solution in the wiki!

http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Gnome_2.28_Changes
section 3.11
section 4.7

Thanks. I've seen that wiki and it seems if I want to modify gdm login screen, I have no choice but to downgrade gdm, since in Configuring gdm 2.28 section there's no workaround for modifying gdm login screen.
