[CentOS] Centos 5 Log-in Screen

2016-12-21 Thread Always Learning
I like Centos 5 so much I would like to use the same screen for log-on's
in Centos 6.

Is this possible?  My desktop is Gnome.

Thank you.

Merry Christmas.

CentOS-5 will be at End Of Life at the end of March 2017.  You need to
upgrade before then to at least CentOS-6 or the system will become
insecure as there will be no more updates and the entire distro will be
moved to vault.centos.org.

As far as how to change the theme for login google searches for:

"rhel 6" gdm background

"centos 6" gdm background

Provide relevant links for swapping the background picture.

 crashes.

 Anyone else getting this?

No, it enables Firefox to use ffmpeg that exists on the system.  I use
the rpms from Nux! Dextop on CentOS-7.  He also has rpms for CentOS-6.

https://li.nux.ro/repos.html

The default firefox shipped by RHEL (so also in the main CentOS repos)
has ffmpeg disabled for the last several releases.

I'm not quite certain what you like. If like me you like logical menu
tree, then you probably will like Mate. Mate is GNOME fork, which stayed
like older GNOME when GNOME went "iPad-like".

I hope, this helps.
