Hi riV. I initially started with a 140x140 but depending on resolution it would get moved all over the screen so I switched to the full screen image that is the vsido_login.png and centered that one with trial and error. The wave.svg is a background scale file that came with the original Industrial theme that I just copied with other files, it has no use in the VSIDO lxdm config

lxdm
keep the login image of small size; a large login.png can cover the sign-in box.
when that happens keyboard input is being read, but it cannot be seen.

Hello riV.. I tested this one all the way down to 1024 X 768 and it looked fine.

Quote from: jedi on December 16, 2023, 04:45:20 AMGreat and timely fix guys much appreciated.  I had already gone my own route around this minor irritant and found my way back home to lxdm in less than 12 hours!

Nice job riV and VastOne!  Always a smart guy around to fix our stuff just because we're using your SID! 

Thanks Jed.. I'm interested in the route and fix you took to fix lxdm if you don't mind sharing

Quote from: jedi on December 14, 2023, 10:28:59 PMAfter updating I lost the graphical login. (lxdm-greeter-gtk?) My dubious and not very diligent work-around was to hit a tty and grabbed lightdm 
Anyway it worked and voila VSIDO is STILL 'the One'!


All that uptime...  Oh well up to date VSIDO and all that goes with it is so awesome to me!  Thanks everyone and you know who you are!!!

Welcome back Jedi!

There was an issue with lxdm that riV and I worked on and fixed here. On that thread is the fix and files to get lxdm working again. Please PM me or post there if you need anything more to get lxdm working, I happen to like it a lot better than lightdm.

95 days of uptime! Your update must have been a beast too.. I am glad to see you are here and active old friend

Both VSIDO FSA's were updated to the new 6.5.0-5-amd64 kernel

Issues with lxdm have been resolved and it is back as the default display manager. Thank you riV for your assistance on the forum in solving this.

That's really cool riV 

My current mood


 

Worked on this quite a bit today and came up with what I decided to go with as the default login screen now.. The attached file just needs to be saved in /usr/share/images/desktop-base directory and it's already pointed to that file in /etc/lxdm/default.conf

Quote from: riV on November 27, 2023, 02:49:46 AMwith a transparent background we will see the penguins? the ram? cpu?
Good progress; Your "foot is in the door" to lxdm.
Awwwwww, spacefm folder dummy login image now a blank.
We look forward to seeing your next lxdm theme that grows from dummy blank.

The [140x140] size will autoalign on lxdm; trial of different sizes to experience different autoalign outcome. (?) with transparent you will not see the image jump between username and password as it autoaligns to the single box.

I am working on it and will have it ready on the next release of the VSIDO FSA's. This is a working version of it now


 

I got VSIDO3 working and back to the way I was when all this started.. Basically you have to have whatever login.png file in the root of VSIDO3 directory ... So I used gIMP and created a blank png file that I have attached to this ... It is simply a dummy login.png with nothing but a transparent background.

Hey riV I did get VSIDO3 to work so I am making progress! Will keep this thread updated

Thanks riV .. I have tried multiple different instances and configs to the point that I cant even get Industrial to work anymore and honestly I am to the point of just saying the hell with it and staying with lightdm even though I think lxdm is so much better..

I am going to uninstall lxdm and wipe away all instances of any config files and try this all again

Hello riV

I reconfigured using lxdm-config and set the background color to black but
I extracted the zip and in lxdm.conf made VSIDO3 the default theme

Still no good.. I did not change the background image, should that have been removed?
