I deicided to modify the Linux-Athena xlogin to have a different
layout than the standard. The color scheme is largely inspired by the
color scheme Chad had on infocalypse for a while: a black screen
background and a gray xlogin window background.
I've installed this on quiche to see how people like it. The files
affected in /mit/linux-athena/xdm/xlogin are:
Xlogin Changed "white" to "gray" in a bunch of places
xlogin.c Changed a hardcoded "white" to "gray"
config Call /etc/athena/login/login instead of xlogin
login New script; does an xsetroot and calls xlogin
Makefile Install login in /etc/athena/login
Makefile also has some changes to stop linking against the shadow
password library; if you back it out, be sure to redo those changes.
(They were done before, but not checked in.)
If people like this enough, I'll make a new xlogin package with these
settings, and try to get Craig to change the colors in the release :).
