Did that (great tip, I was missing it), and double checked the options both in "System>Login Manager" *and* in "Look & Feel>Appearance>Splash Screen". There's no mention to "Space fun" left there. However, space fun is being really stubborn, and it is still there (only for about two seconds, right after hitting <ENTER> in the login greeter - after that, it is substituted by user's choice of desktop background). > How are you "removing space fun from my desktop"?

Yes, I did it by replacing it with "moreblue-orbit", via update alternatives - no ugly hack here, I don't like doing stuff that way, either :-) But, I *did* disabled the themed greeter, via /etc/default/kdm.d/ > NOTE: you are not forced to accept themes, login or boot splashes, nor > are they difficult to change, or poorly documented - hundreds of > patently wrong articles and posts to the contrary not withstanding ;-p Yes, It took me some research, but I eventually discovered that update-alternatives cover that. > P.S. debian-kde is a more appropriate list if you want useful answers. Ok, I'll ask at debian-kde. Best regards, João -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
