In order the help the OP since I apparently deleted this thread when it started, the GNOME page looks reasonably accurate. I do not have AMD hardware so I cannot comment on that section. The mouse cursor theme can be changed through the Tweaks GUI, but that only takes effect once GNOME Shell actually starts and doesn't affect gdm, as I understand it. > > You're kinda asking the wrong crowd.

Or this is > an extremely small list. I've been a Debian user and member of this list for quite a long time, since the late 1990s at least. In all that time I don't recall the Debian Project approaching this list requesting our assistance in updating/maintaining the Wiki. This Wiki is semi-private in that editing is not open to just everyone but may only be done through an account (apparently I have one and now have to figure out how to reset my password). The Wiki front page is rather adamant that addition of content to the Wiki by everyone is welcome and desired. In particular solutions are provided on this list that should make it onto the Wiki. I'm not volunteering for that "job" but it is something we might all consider in the future. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds.
