Description Ezequiel Partida 2018-12-07 08:47:40 CET
I just installed Breeze Slider 2 Login Screen with the slideshow feature pointing to my wallpapers... It looks great.

It would be great if Mageia 7 would have it as default. It looks elegant and slick.

Regards,

My personal opinion is that for consistency across the distribution, we should use a theme that just displays the default Mageia background.

Good point!

Would it also make the Plasma Live DVDs boot slower (in Live mode)?

It shouldn't make much difference. The thing that really slows the Live boot down is the hardware detection done by harddrake.

Good point guys. You are the experts, but it really looks nice and elegant.

Hello Guys,

Do you think that it would slow down live boot with only one Picture?.

This one has only one picture -> https://www.dropbox.com/s/tv0nj5p1s8geho7/newlogin.mp4?dl=0

The cool thing about this is that it has a script to modify and point to somewhere else with more pictures and create slideshows, I modified the script to do something like this -> https://www.dropbox.com/s/98aegnkz8ybddew/mylogin.mp4?dl=0

What do you think?.

Assigning this to Atelier Team as they should look after this request and decide what to do.

This can't stay in bugsquad list.

As stated, we need to have a consistent look across the different login screens, so for the default theme, things like this aren't really an option.

The plugin could be packaged, but I assume that it is available in the Plasma store for those that want to customise the way that the distribution looks.

If there was a full theme that you would like to suggest that included the sddm theme, plasma and wallpaper customisations, then you could have that packaged as an alternate to the default theme.
