Ed, doesn't that look like the parameter is commented out to you? It does to
me. Remove the hash symbol from in front of the GreeterScreen line.
The OP said it wasn't in there in F19. This is quite different from being in there
but commented out. :-)
Besides, if you look at other posts by me in this thread you'd notice that I've
used it and verified that it works as advertised. :-)
