Guys,
This used to be easy with gdmsetup, but in gdm 2.30 -- that's gone. I've
been to the gnome sites, I've googled it, I've looked through the gdm

its on the wiki

It's gotten quite a bit worse, usability wise, I think.
Oh, and if you find out how to change the background image for the
screensaver login then please let me know. I've looked in vain for
instructions on how to get rid of the ugly green background that comes
as default.

The GDM wiki page gives instructions for that, basically running
gnome-appearance-properties as the gdm user.
How do you get around this:
gdm:x:120:120:Gnome Display Manager:/var/lib/gdm:/sbin/nologin
su, gksu say account is not available. Do you just change the :sbin/nologin
part? How -- safely? I've never messed with something like that before.
