Hello everyone,

I am using Ubuntu 9.10 amd64, and installed the famous mac4lin theme. There is only one thing in there that I can't make work: at some point in the install is does


echo "Installing Mac4Lin GDM Login Theme and Sounds..."
sudo tar -xzf GDM/Mac4Lin_GDM_v1.0.tar.gz -C /usr/share/gdm/themes/
sudo tar -xzf Sounds/Mac4Lin_Sounds_v1.0.tar.gz -C /usr/share/sounds/
sudo tar -xzf Sounds/Mac4Lin_Pidgin-Sounds_v1.0.tar.gz -C /usr/share/sounds/

echo "Done!"
echo "Please set the Mac4Lin GDM Theme manually by going to System > Admin > Login Window > Local > Theme"
The problem is that there is no such thing in Karmic, they must have removed it in that version. Under System > Administration > Login Screen here's all I have (cf attached file, can't find how to copy in this text)
How do I get around this limitation ? Surely there is a hack for that, just like for any silly limitation ;)
