|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1.3. Splash and Wallpapers
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We have just two splash and two wallpapers for each window manager (not
|
||
|
|
considering the originals in .xcf).
|
||
|
|
One pair (splash / wallpaper) will be used during development
|
||
|
|
cycle (testing/sid) and other to release.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/images/desktop-base/gnome-default-splash.png (symlink)
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/images/desktop-base/gnome-default-wallpaper.png (symlink)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/images/desktop-base/splash/gnome-debian-sid-splash.png
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/images/desktop-base/wallpapers/gnome-debian-sid-wp.png
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Before Etch we will add the images below and the symlinks above will
|
||
|
|
point to this pair:
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/images/desktop-base/splash/gnome-debian-etch-splash.png
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/images/desktop-base/wallpapers/gnome-debian-etch-wp.png
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1.4. Boot splash
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
desktop-base provides a theme for splashy, in
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/splashy/themes/moreblue-orbit. Previously the theme was in
|
||
|
|
/etc/splashy but since splashy people move the themes to /usr/share and
|
||
|
|
replaced the folder by a symlink, we had to follow. If you modified the
|
||
|
|
theme before, you should be able to find it in /etc/splashy.dpkg-old.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you installed splashy before desktop-base, the MoreBlue-Orbit theme will
|
||
|
|
be automatically configured. But if you install splashy after desktop-base,
|
||
|
|
you'll need to run the following command to enable it:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# dpkg-reconfigure desktop-base
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Desktop files
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/desktop-base/debian-homepage.desktop
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/desktop-base/debian-reference.desktop
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/desktop-base/debian-security.desktop
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Changing desktop-base images
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We need professional looking Debian artwork in the
|
||
|
|
Desktop. If you want to help changing some desktop-base
|
||
|
|
images, that would be good consider the following notes:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The swirl Debian logo is red;
|
||
|
|
- The Debian font is Poppl Laudation Condensed (unfortunately,
|
||
|
|
commercial font)
|
||
|
|
- Blue (#5F92C9 and some others) fits with GNOME default
|
||
|
|
clearlooks theme that we use in your default desktop
|
||
|
|
environment and looks good in KDE too;
|
||
|
|
- Black and White are welcome colors too.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you've suggestions for a better artwork, create or edit
|
||
|
|
the images and open a 'wishlist' bug against desktop-base in our
|
||
|
|
Bug Tracking System (http://bugs.debian.org/). Please attach the
|
||
|
|
'svg' or 'xcf' and don't violate copyright.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4. Window Managers
|
||
|
|
desktop-base is used by GNOME/KDE/XFCE.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you're responsible for a WM in Debian and wants to use
|
||
|
|
desktop-base artwork or add your own image (wallpaper, splash,
|
||
|
|
whatever) use the layout described above and send your patch
|
||
|
|
through the Bug Tracking System to us.
