Subject: xdm background too loud: less obtrusive screen desired
Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Package: xdm
Version: 4.1.0-16
Severity: wishlist
The default background of xdm login screen
is a tad loud to my taste, and I suspect to others as well.
I investigated a little and found that
the startup script uses
/etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup
to run XBanner to show background as in
/usr/X11R6/bin/xbanner -file /etc/X11/XBanner.ad
(quoted from Xsetup.).
The configuration in Xbanner.ad, then,
have much to be desired.
Now, the XBanner.ad uses
the color red for the title "Debian" and
the background is a gradient color from red, green to blue
and then back to red. Very colorful.
And TOO colorful indeed.
Attached is a diff that somewhat uses
less loud color combination for the background
and smoother title.
(The smoother font requires xfonts-scalable package to
be downloaded, though.)

PS: I know some people might think this request is frivolous, but
the outlook of GUI, and its color balance is very important.
I hope someone with more artistic talent (AND
human-machine interface design experience) will
polish up the xdm screen!
Thank you in advance for your attention.
