Debian Screensaver
Hello, Currently in gnome-screensaver we're replacing the Debian logo screensaver with an Ubuntu Logo one. I'm thinking we should change that so that we're just adding the Ubuntu one instead of replacing it. I don't think it'll confuse users and it does pay tribute to Debian's importance to Ubuntu. I think the Ubuntu logo should still be default. --Ted signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop

we never replaced anything here, the 01_ubuntu_floaters.patch just adds
an ubuntu.svg and ubuntu_theme.desktop which are selected by default.
there is the popsqureas screensaver i disabled in the gss package since
we have all the hacks in xscreensaver{-data,-data-extras,-gl,-gl-extras}
we also usually package gnome stuff ahead of debian, i think they didnt
have the floaters patch up until gutsy (i might be wrong here though)

Compare Feisty contains a 'Debian Etch' background picture http://launchpad.net/bugs/96252, which totally confused me when I discovered it. I'm all in favor of paying tribute to Debian, but I think a screensaver would be (and a background picture is) a weird and unhelpful place to do it. Ubuntu's Web site, and to a lesser extent its help pages, can and do perform this task much more thoroughly.

Okay, so some of the Debian folks are saying that this might create more issues that it would fix. I'm now in favor of the status quo :) --Ted signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
