Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
When you start Ubuntu 9.10 up, on the login screen the mouse pointer is
displayed exactly in the center. If you have only one user (it's
probably the same with multiple users), this is exactly the place where
you have the white "button" for your user. A the mouse is over this
button, an unnecessary and unaesthetic tooltip popup is displaying,
saying "Log in as <username>" (rough translation from French).
I've attached a screen shot so you can see what I mean.
I see 3 potential fixes:
- Inactivate the tooltip until the mouse has actually been moved
- Change the login screen so that the "button" is not displayed at the center
of the screen
- Change the original position of the mouse pointer a few dozen pixels up (is
this even possible?)
