May I ask how to use this theme? Btw: there is a gdm*.desktop file in the package. Pierre -- archlinux.de

Heya Pierre, KDM themes are typically installed to: $KDEDIR/share/apps/kdm/themes To select one, modify $KDEDIR/share/config/kdm/kdmrc with the new path: Theme=/opt/kde/share/apps/kdm/themes/archlinux-simplyblack Also, make sure UseTheme=true is set (it should be near the Theme= declaration). I think we have a package in the repos (kdetheme) that does all of this through a GUI. The *.desktop is intentional. KDM and GDM use more or less the same theme syntax (GDM more, KDE less). I do wish the Kdevs adopted the full syntax--it would make my life a lot easier :) Let me know if that does the trick...

kdmtheme. :)

I got it. I think it wouldn't a bad idea to add kdmtheme as dependency. It's not straight-forward to edit those files by hand. :-) Btw: Are you working on splash and background images for kde, too? They still have the old logo. (splash is even named Arch 0.7.2) Pierre -- archlinux.de

I contemplated adding kdebase, but it seemed like overkill--I never thought of kdmtheme. I'll do that.

It's on my todo list. I don't use KDE myself, but seeing how you're the packager could you send me an email (or jabber) with any suggestions or info on which files need updating. I spent some time looking through the PKGBUILDs for kdebase and whatnot but I didn't see any specific source links to artwork files. Are these in a single package or spread out? PS: Thank you Mr. Willard, it's been a long time since I used KDE =)

I think the best way would be to provide separate packages and remove any brandings from our stock kde. The current graphics can be found at ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/other/kde-graphics. Pierre -- archlinux.de

That's the plan, but I don't know which package pulls the artwork (so I can see proper pathnames, etc.)

I see; the package is called kde-common. -- archlinux.de

Thanks...I'll see what I can whip up =)
