I changed GDM background by replacing the /usr/share/backgrounds/toutatis.jpg
file with an image of my choice renamed as toutatis.jpg. Is it okay?
Sure.
Hello,
how can I change the GDM background in Trisquel 5.5 Brigantia ?
Thank you for replying.
I already tried the webupd8 article and I was not successful.
I'm getting "bash: gsettings: command not found".

Run this:
sudo cp -t /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow/
/usr/share/applications/gnome-control-center.desktop
Log out. You will then get the Gnome Control Center
Thank you for replying, I just tried your solution but the only thing I was
able to change is the window manager theme on gnome-control-center;
in the gdm-simple-greeter.schemas the background is active, so, any idea ?

Sorry that it did

That's in package libglib2.0-bin
The GDM binary seems to be running as root user so perhaps if one runs
gnome-control-center using gksudo the settings can be changed. Didn't try it.
(I autologin myself.)
I finally get around and did it, it's a dirty solution but it worked.
Before I go any further I must say that I don't have the Trisquel
meta-package installed so this might not work for everyone.
I did like this:
sudo su
su - gdm -s /bin/bash
GSETTINGS_BACKEND=dconf gsettings get org.gnome.des
