From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020809 Description of problem: in the earlier beta's (limbo 1 and 2) the screen presented to the the user on mouse movement after locking the Gnome screen, had an image of shadowman instead of the unappealing(my oppinion) X flame logo... Please put back the shadowman or even something new, but loose the X flame Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Lock the Gnome session 2.Move the mouse 3. Actual Results: The unlock screen is shown with an ugly logo Expected Results: The logo should not be ugly Additional info:
We decided to stay with the upstream unlock dialog.
I'm sorry to hear that... IMO it was a very good choice to replace it with the shadowman logo. The unlock image as you say, is just not very nice, and will be something like a crack in the fine polish of the next red hat release... The unlock dialog is what non-linux users will notice at first if they want to see my linux desktop, and that will leave them with a yucky feel of linux. Your decision, i'm just sorry :-(
in Red Hat 8.0 RC2 - the unlock x window is completely back to its old ugly self... non-gnome2 style... I sincerely hope this is a mistake - I was just getting used to living with the default unlock image - now i really don't want to learn to live with this as well plz?!?
It's intentional; the gtk2 unlock dialog had some bugs that we couldn't fix in time, so it was disabled.

Will the gtk2 dialog replace the xscreensaver default dialog once the bugs are fixed? Is there a bug ticket open for the gtk2 dialog? If not, this should be reopened to track this issue.

one more year passed and the unlock window ugly look is still not fixed. It's a shame.
