After I installed my system from scratch again, I wanted a nicer login screen. I looked around KDE-Look.org for a theme that I could use. After some experiments, I settled for making a theme of my own.
I started off with the Kubuntu Edgy UserList theme and Gentoo-ified it. Then I replaced the background graphic with my favorite wallpaper. This is the result:
To install the same theme for yourself:
- Download my theme files
- Follow the instructions for installing KDM themes from KDE-Look.org
To have my (or your) wallpaper in the background of the login splash screen:
- Put the unwetterhimmel.jpg into
~/.kde/share/wallpapers/ - Open Control Center -> Appearance & Themes -> Splash Screen
- Choose “Default”
- Open Control Center -> System Administration -> Login Manager
- Click on “Administrator Mode” and login with your root password
- Choose “Background”
- Click on “Enable background”, then “Picture” and set it to unwetterhimmel
