Hi people!

I liked the login screen of 9.04 but the one of 9.10 is not one of my favorites. I download some nice "login managers" (I'm not sure that is the name of the thing), but How do I install them?

In System -> Administration -> Login Screen there is no option for that, and the so called Login Screen Manager is not in the menu (Should I install an extra package?).

Thank you all!

Karmix uses a version of gdm that is not compatible with most of the gdm themes that you can download off the net. You can start here (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1333683&highlight=karmic+gdm+config) to get some ideas about things that you can customize with the new gdm, or you can revert to the old gdm (see here (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8294939#post8294939)).

Then go to local.
