[arch-general] How to change gdm greeter theme?

[PT M.]

As i know, changing of gdm 2.28 theme was not supported, yet,
but this program should help doing some configuring:(like change background,
icon, autologin, banner text...)

gdm2setup


TIPs:
 i found i bug of gdm2setup, if /usr/share/images/xsplash directory not
existed, gdm2setup will fail to renew the background image.  you can simple
create this directory to solve this.
