Automatic GDM background changer

0

Few months ago, I pointed out this method to change the GDM login page background according your current background.

Now, the same author has changed a bit his great script: a debian package is now available!
Therefore, here there an update guide for achieving the automatic wallpaper change:

  1. install wallpaper_tray
  2. install xsplash-background-settings
  3. done!

Remember to select the “Use Desktop Background” setting!
