Description of problem: Red Hat logo is missing in GDM. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gdm-3.8.4-7.el7.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: Boot to GDM. Actual results: no Red Hat logo in GDM. Expected results: Red Hat logo should be shown at the top of the user list widget. Additional info: From Branding Documentation: The login screen can use branded artwork in two places: the lock screen shield that covers the login screen and a distributor logo, shown at the top of the user list widget.
i think this is "by design", right, Jakub? We have the ability to put the logo at the bottom of the user list, if i'm wrong

We have the ability to put the > logo at the bottom of the user list, if i'm wrong I don't see any logo even if I configure it manually: 1. Download wallpaper: cd /usr/share/backgrounds/; wget http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b0/NewTux.svg/200px-NewTux.svg.png 2. Using your favorite editor create override file in: /etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/background 3. Paste: [org/gnome/login-screen] logo='file:///usr/share/backgrounds/200px-NewTux.svg.png' 4. Run as a superuser: dconf update
I believe this can be done through /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ like so: 1. (same as above) 2. Edit file /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.login-screen.gschema.override 3. Provide at least these two lines: [org.gnome.login-screen] logo='/usr/share/backgrounds/200px-NewTux.svg.png' 4. Run as superuser: glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/

Run as superuser: glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ Custom logo is now displayed under user list. Now, should be Red Hat logo part of default RHEL7 branding?
My recommendation is not putting any logos on the login screen. Branding is *not* about plastering logos all over the place. By doing that, we would be doing the opposite to creating brand awareness. By adding more visual elements to the page we pollute the clarity of the login dialog and harming the user experience.
Created attachment 846764 [details] RHEL logo Attaching a RHEL logo I'd rather not see used.
alright, given comment 5, i'm going to devnack this.
Development Management has reviewed and declined this request. You may appeal this decision by reopening this request.
I found out today there are still on-going discussions about this bug and so it may get reopened.
reopening since there was a meeting today where it was decided this would come back.
to keep things moving, i've built attachment 846764 [details] now. We may have to do another round if brand team comes back with their own concept.
logo is present in gdm now
