[CentOS-devel] Artwork packages for CentOS 6

[Marcus Moeller]

Hi all.

>>> - gdm
>>
>> GDM is no longer themable like in the past. I can place a logo on top
>> of the login box and change the wallpaper (using gconf). Luckily it
>> makes use of the default wallpaper so this is not really necessary.
>
> Does that happen within an RPM? Not having had a chance to look at 6
> that hard, we somehow need to remove anything Red Hat which is in there,
> even after the machines booted first.
>
>>> - kdm
>>
>> KDM is not that hard, KSplash makes use of the ksplashx engine. Going
>> to dig into that.
>
> Thanks.
>
>>> - bootup (now rhgb, then plymouth)
>>
>> RHEL ships a cool circle theme which we could just use. It's GPL'ed so
>> we only need to replace the logos
>
> I could live with that, others?
>
>>> - anaconda graphics
>>
>> Anaconda artwork changed a bit. It now has a top bar. This might be
>> the hardest part.
>>
>>> - install slides (no idea if those are still supported *or* needed)
>>
>> no, just one static screen
>
> Okay.
>
>> I am going to start packaging that stuff and put it somewhere you can
>> grab the srpms from.
