Xfce 17.10 : Greeter Splash too small
« on: 2017/11/19, 00:44:56 »
 Need some direction, Please.
Is 17.10 xfce using sddm as the Greeter ?
 If so, where is the config?
  I need to change the Splash image as it is too small.
If I can find the image I can change the Scale with Gimp.


Thanks

I do not use Xfce, but it should be in
Code: [Select]
/usr/share/sddm/.. somewhere

okay, the background is defined, if using the stock sddm and background,

Code: [Select]
/usr/share/sddm/themes/patience/theme.conf
and that points to

Code: [Select]
/usr/share/wallpapers/patience/contents/images/1920x1200.jpg
 in my case.

You should fetch the source of the picture and change it with inkscape,

https://git.siduction.org/artwork/wallpapers/src/patience/svg
https://git.siduction.org/artwork/wallpapers/src/patience

or take the picture you want and define it in

Code: [Select]
/usr/share/sddm/themes/patience/user.theme.conf
EDIT: do you talking about the splash during the startup of xfce4 or do you mean the login-manager?

EDIT, EDIT: that splash image named logo,<jpeg?> i think it is stored somewhere in /usr/share/themes/

i do not have xfce4 installed but take a look here

Code: [Select]
