Fedora login window is very ugly!!


Fedora login window is very ugly!!
I have stood it for a long time. Have anyone changed it successfully ? Please tell me and all the friends viewed this thread.
I often download login window theme package from http://art.gnome.org/themes/gdm_greeter , the file type is .tar.bz2 , but I don't know how to install it.
Thanks!

Try this
Quote:
Computer -> System Configuration -> Login Screen Setup -> Graphical Greeter -> Install New Theme -> xxxx.tar.gz -> Install -> Click on new theme -> Close

Kind regards

Thanks , it is ok on ubuntu, but it seems fedora don't support that configuration.


Today I download a gdm login window theme package. Results by google searching shows it is very easy on ubuntu by entering System-> Administration -> login window. But I don't find that way on fedora now.
The theme package I download is named GDM-BrasillinuxEye.tar.gz . I download it from official web http://art.gnome.org/backgrounds/
