I went to launchpad and got python gdm2setup in a deb file and installed it and now have the option of login screen under system>administration which enables me to switch the background picture on my gdm login screen which was what I was trying to accomplish. Ubuntu 10.10 did not have the option available when I upgraded to it from 10.04. Charlie White
