Description Chris Denice 2015-07-29 16:37:35 CEST
Hi there,
Since Kdm is gone now, I am reiterating an old wish which is to have a mageia greeter theme that does not list all users on the system (in addition to the usual one for those who wish to have user listing).

That is useful for sysadmin that do not want all login names to be listed in public places.

Since I guess that the kde team is quite busy with debugging plasma, I am providing such a theme in attachment, it is called mga-coffee for obvious reasons :)

That directory should go in  /usr/share/sddm/themes and "mga-coffee" specified in /etc/sddm.conf.

I'll be happy to package an update-alternatives for /etc/sddm.conf once we will have a mageia-sddm-default-config on request!

Cheers,
Chris.

mga-coffee theme, without user listing

1) Should go in /usr/share/sddm/themes

2) Modify /etc/sddm.conf as:

[Theme]
# use our custom theme based on Maui but with default Mageia background
Current=mga-coffee

Comment 2 David Walser 2015-07-29 18:25:57 CEST
This is absolutely necessary for security reasons, and also MSEC disables the user lists when you switch to secure level, but it does not yet have support for SDDM.  This needs to be added.  I guess it could be written to use Chris's theme when in secure level.

Thanks Chris!

Just tested with sddm-0.12.0-1.mga5, works fine for me :)
Added via http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages?view=revision&revision=886043 and thanks to Chris for providing the new theme ^^

Please provide feedback if something is not working.

hi, 

maui is now deprecated. Can you provide a new mga version based on new sddm default theme ?

Comment 7 Nicolas Lécureuil 2016-09-12 16:28:42 CEST
what about just using maldives or elarun with a mageia background ?

Actually my understanding is that maui was not deprecated, but it's now the default/what you have with no specific theme:

> REMOVED the "maui" theme as a standalone theme as it is now embedded in the > greeter. Remember to change the theme to empty if you had it set to "maui".

Replacement file to suppress the display of the flag

I propose this display without the flag of the layout. It brings no good information, but confusion. There is not yet better way.

Florian, Nicolas, could one of you test papoteur's fix in Comment 12 and add it to our theme? Or point me to the right package so that I have a look?

Could you confirm we can close this bug too?
Comment 19 Italo Ramirez 2017-06-24 20:22:24 CEST
Do they speak of the same problem that is observed in the attached image? Corresponds to the first start after installation of Mageia 6 RC PLASMA.

@Italo
What is the problem in the picture you joined?
Comment 21 Chris Denice 2017-07-05 15:52:17 CEST
This bug seems to have derived miles away from the opened issue and none of us seems to know what is the issue now :D

I am closing because:

1) There is now a theme without users listing
2) The US flag is gone.

If there is any other issues than the two above, please open a new bug report, with eventually a link the relevant comments in this bug. Or reopen with some clear explanation :)

Cheers.
