Bug Description
This one is driving me up the walls right now.
DM is lightdm, greeter session is slick-greeter, both preinstalled.
I got Onboard to show the same theme that I have been using during my session on my voyo vBook i7 tablet in "standard" Linux Mint 21 "Vanessa" Cinnamon, in my case modified "Blackboard", simply by adding the line
keyboard = onboard -t Blackboard [sic]
to
/etc/lightdm/
Now I switched distros and went for LMDE 5 "Elsie" and it's not doing it anymore. I have tried changing the syntax to all thinkable solutions.
keyboard=onboard -t Blackboard
keyboard=onboard -t 'Blackboard'
keyboard=onboard --Theme=Blackboard
...
and so forth. I also looked into it in the dconf-editor and tried to change the schema in "/usr/share/
It always shows the default theme (Nightshade)
What am I doing wrong? My OCD kicks in pretty badly :o
Cheers!
It seems that slick-greeter as well as lightdm-gtk-greeter can't cope with the "draw-user- background" setting. It is not working, so you have to set it to false and create your own background image. WTF
