Comment 9 for bug 536712

Hello!

I´ve got good and bad news regarding this bug:

1.) I´ve installed the newest version on the ideapad with which i was experiencing this problems and can report that it works as desired now, very fine, many thanks @growlf !

2.) I´ve shown this app to another user who just on that same day has setup his netbook with karmic + all updates, so a real "fresh" install of gdm2setup. With this scenario we ran in the following problems:

a.) The background would change as desired, but not xsplash. Looking in the directory "/usr/share/images/xsplash" i see among other things a bg.jpg with the desired picture and only one other file, a "bg_2560x1600.jpg" which is, unlike on my ideapad, no symlink, but a real file with the unwanted, old picture in it. Also i´ve got many different symlinks on my ideapad for all kinds of resolutions, he only has one.
This was fixed by replacing the real file with a symlink to bg.jpg analogous to the setup on my ideapad but should happen automatically, right?

b.) Setting from a "automatic login" (which was set with the original tool of karmic) to a login with username/password could not be reversed with gdm2setup, i had to use the original tool!

c.) Extra information: The "display user list" button, which i never used on my ideapad after setting this with a gconf-command, is not intuitive: Ticking it made the user list visible, but next time you start the tool the box is unticked and if you tick it again the user list goes away.....shouldn´t the state of this be remembered? Should i file a separate bug or did i overlook one?

Would love to help making this great app even better with this,

greetings from Austria,

Steve
