With tracing kdm, I managed to get the settings I need. It would have been much more intuitive, if I /etc/default/kdm.d would overwrite all fields in kdmrc and not only a subset (which seem to have also a different uppercase/lowercase convention(?)). Here are the notes I took, in case they are useful for somebody else: List All Users on Login Screen ============================== Disabling the theme is required to show user list rd@Silberkiste:/etc/kde4/kdm$ diff kdmrc.orig kdmrc 328c328,329 < LogoArea=Logo --- > # LogoArea=Logo > LogoArea=Clock 378a380 > UserList=true rd@Silberkiste:/etc/kde4/kdm$ diff backgroundrc.orig backgroundrc 16c16 < Wallpaper=stripes.png --- > Wallpaper=/usr/share/wallpapers/joy/contents/images/1920x1080.png rd@Silberkiste:/etc/kde4/kdm$ cat /etc/default/kdm.d/90_local USETHEME="false" rd@Silberkiste:/etc/kde4/kdm$ Disabling USETHEME in kdmrc would be overwritten by /etc/default/kdm.d/10_desktop-base Thanks, Rainer -- Rainer Dorsch -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
