What does everybody think of the new greeter?
Personally, I have issues with it:
- suspend option remains, even after disabling suspend globally via
gconf-editor (bug already reported, and apparently patch has already been committed upstream)
- I can't seem to configure my "face" image. Putting a ".face" graphic
in my home directory doesn't work, nor does configuring image with System->Preferences->Personal->About Me.
- Why is there an animation between clicking my name and typing my
password?!?! Even Windows XP welcome screen is better than this! I want to log in NOW, not when the animation is complete.
- Where the hell are the login screen settings? This is a serious
oversight. I had thought the greeter configuration was supposed to be EASIER than previous releases (I can't remember where I read that, but for some reason I was expecting it).
- It's ugly.
Anybody else have thoughts on the Fedora 9 pre-release greeter?
