Viper550You said you were going to have trouble with getting the Usplash artwork into GFXBOOT08:58
Viper550anyone here?09:23
kwwiiI am here but I am in a meeting09:29
kwwiiso i am not really here09:30
Viper550Okay then, I see you got my email about me noticing that gfxboot oddity on Ubuntu CE09:30
kwwiiyeah, thanks for mentioning that, i would not have noticed09:31
Viper550I'm also considering whipping up a new Ubuntu login screen using the new version of the Gnome GDM theme (with the ok/cancel buttons) as the base09:35
kwwiiyou mean a new gdm theme or a new login splash?09:40
Viper550gdm, that's what I said09:41
msikmahmm09:41
msikmaDoesn't the latest unstable version of Ubuntu have DejaVu Condensed as default font?09:41
kwwiimsikma: yes, it should09:41
msikmaDoes anyone know for sure?09:42
msikmaIf it is, then the default hinting must be set to "slight"09:42
msikmaThe hinting seems to not work at all on the other settings.09:42
msikmaBut it does work rather nicely on "slight".09:42
kwwiimsikma: that is a problem with gnome09:42
kwwiimsikma: I'll look into that09:42
msikmaIt's kind of strange how it doesn't get hinted on "medium"09:42
Viper550This new font is well, interesting09:42
kwwiimsikma: yeah, seems freaky09:43
Viper550I actually kinda like it, looks more contemporary09:44
kwwiiViper550: not sure how much we are going to change the GDM for feisty09:49
Viper550I'm trying to make it as simliar to the old one as possible layout wise09:50
Viper550And from what I saw on the Wiki, you are doing most of the work on Fiesty.09:51
kwwiiyeah, pretty much all of it09:51
kwwiisince I am getting paid to do it09:52
Viper550O_O09:52
kwwiiof course, that does not mean that others cannot help, just that in the end I'll be responsible for it (responsible to report to sabdfl that is)09:57
Viper550k then! Is there a preview app for GDM themes?09:58
kwwiinot that I know of09:59
Viper550So far, I've replaced the background, the Options icon, and the "new default fonts"10:03
troy_skwwii10:21
troy_sYou in?10:22
Viper550wanna see my XML so far?10:22
