The Fedora custom theme doesn't have support for user lists, so that option has no effect. Pick a theme that does (the "Oxygen" theme installed by default does, for instance) and it should work. You could also use the old-school greeter dialog instead, which also supports user lists. <snip> > The previous chapter describes KDE's GUI configuration tool, which I > have not got, I suppose I should load that and see if I can get it to > change something for me. Looks like kdm includes its own system settings module, but may not have a dependency on the KDE system settings application. Make sure "kdebase-runtime" is installed and then just run "kcmshell4 kdm". -T.C. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
