Description Dwayne Bailey 2007-06-15 12:33:51 UTC
Description of problem:
When unlocking the screen after going into screensaver mode we're presented with
the unlock widget which to be honest is just plain ugly.  It doesn't match the
UI used or even look remotely like it aligns with the general Fedora look or the
very nice gdm login look.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Lock screen with required password to unlock
2.  Press a character to get the dialog
  
Actual results:
Gaze at a dialog from another world

Expected results:
The dialog is:
1. Themed like the default environment
2. Looks like the other graphical cues on the distro, gdm login, wallpaper,
buttons, etc.

I guess this summarises most of the issues in actually doing this:

Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2007-06-15 14:55:12 UTC
are you talking about xscreensaver or gnome-screensaver?

Comment 3 Dwayne Bailey 2007-06-18 11:05:56 UTC
This is xscreensaver.  Installing gnome-screensaver gave me a nicer unlock
widget that matched the desktop feel.  Thanks.

I've marked as WORKSFORME.  Xscreensaver is ugly but gnomep-screensaver provides
a decent solution.
