Attachments: Patch to change default splash image

Description Mason Kidd 2004-02-23 19:53:42 UTC
The gnome-session ebuild should not overwrite the default gnome-splash.png splash image.  It should instead install it's own splash file, and modify the default in the gconf schema.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Patch to change default splash image

This patch will change the default splash image to gentoo-splash.png.
Comment 2 Mason Kidd 2004-02-23 20:29:51 UTC
Additional changes needed for above patch:
1. Add patch to src_unpack section
2. Change doins to install gentoo-splash.png

Rename files/gnome-splash.png to files/gentoo-splash.png

well, just for reference, this seems a cleaner way to specify the splash. ximian desktop uses this method, but redhat 9 does it our way.
Comment 4 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-02-24 01:58:11 UTC
Well, this is actually noted in the FIXME of the g-s ebuilds, just never got around to changing it. Only downside to this approach might be that users who have their own splash setting don't get the updated system splash. Or is that an upside as well ?
Comment 5 Spider (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-02-24 10:14:39 UTC
I'd consider that an upside ...
Comment 6 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-03-20 01:21:35 UTC
I adapted & added this to the gnome-session-2.5.92 ebuild, so this should be taken care of in future versions.

Thanks for your help.
