The default theme and theme name of ‘slim-service’ are defined in (gnu
services xorg):
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define %default-slim-theme
;; Theme based on work by Felipe López.
#~(string-append #$%artwork-repository "/slim"))
(define %default-slim-theme-name
;; This must be the name of the sub-directory in %DEFAULT-SLIM-THEME that
;; contains the actual theme files.
"0.8")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The ‘artwork-repository’ variable here comes from (gnu artwork):
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define %artwork-repository
(origin
(method git-fetch)
(uri (git-reference
(url "git://git.savannah.gnu.org/guix/guix-artwork.git")
(commit "61ae7c8")))
(sha256
(base32
"102fxk2l6b0ibry3n430q8ljhwrnbml9qgalzkz6v09r7sx6a532"))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
To use the “GNU” SLiM screen, you need to use an older revision of the
guix-artwork.git repository. So, in your OS config file, you can write
something like this (untested):
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define %old-artwork
(origin
(method git-fetch)
(uri (git-reference
(url "git://git.savannah.gnu.org/guix/guix-artwork.git")
(commit "3236581"))) ;pre-GuixSD branding
(sha256
(base32
"0ayg0693agck8zkcxfymph5ccc3y44cdf9i4y0qvxajhac8rkcaj"))))
(define %old-slim-theme
#~(string-append #$%old-artwork "/slim"))
(define %old-slim-theme-name
"0.8")
(operating-system
;; ...
(services (cons (slim-service #:theme %old-slim-theme
#:theme-name %old-slim-theme-name)
;; ...
)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
HTH!
Ludo’.
