A minimalist LightDM Webkit greeter theme, based on lightdm-webkit-google
This is a theme for LightDM Webkit (lightdm-webkit-greeter
).
It's designed for single-user machines and inspired by i3lock. If there's only one user, it doesn't even show any prompts.
It borrows the shutdown/restart/clock at the bottom (and most of the code) from lightdm-webkit-google.
Features
I created this for use on Arch Linux on my HP Chromebook 11, so it only has the basic features of:
- Selecting an available user from a dropdown (if there's more than one)
- Entering their password
Seeing their profile picture- Restarting the computer
- Shutting the computer down
- A clock!
How to install
Instructions will differ for every platform, but I can tell you how to install it on Arch Linux:
- Install and enable
lightdm
andlightdm-webkit-greeter
- In the terminal,
cd
to/usr/share/lightdm-webkit/themes/
- Clone this repository here, it should create a folder called
lightdm-webkit-google
- Enable the theme in your
/etc/lightdm/lightdm-webkit-greeter.conf
