= Displaying a user prompt instead of a list of users on the GNOME login screen
|
|
|
|
To show a user prompt on the GNOME login screen, open a terminal and perform the following steps:
|
|
|
|
. Create a file for the GNOME Display Manager (GDM) configuration.
|
|
+
|
|
----
|
|
$ sudo mkdir /etc/dconf/db/gdm.d
|
|
----
|
|
+
|
|
----
|
|
$ vim /etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/01-hide-users
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
. In a text editor of your choice, `vim` in this example, insert the following content to the `/etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/01-hide-users` file:
|
|
+
|
|
----
|
|
[org/gnome/login-screen]
|
|
banner-message-enable=true
|
|
banner-message-text='ENTER ANY MESSAGE YOU WANT HERE. FOR A NEW LINE USE \n.'
|
|
disable-restart-buttons=true
|
|
disable-user-list=true
|
|
----
|
|
+
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
--
|
|
To not display the banner message, do not include the first and second line. To enable the `Restart` button, do not include the fourth line.
|
|
--
|
|
+
|
|
Save the file and return to the terminal.
|
|
|
|
. Create another file for GDM configuration.
|
|
+
|
|
----
|
|
$ sudo vim /etc/dconf/profile/gdm
|
|
----
|
|
+
|
|
Insert the following content in the `/etc/dconf/profile/gdm` file:
|
|
+
|
|
----
|
|
user-db:user
|
|
system-db:gdm
|
|
----
|
|
+
|
|
Save the file.
|
|
|
|
. Enter the following command:
|
|
+
|
|
----
|
|
$ sudo dconf update
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
. Check if the command was executed correctly:
|
|
+
|
|
----
|
|
$ ls /etc/dconf/db
|
|
----
|
|
+
|
|
The output should contain the following:
|
|
+
|
|
----
|
|
gdm gdm.d ... [output truncated]
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
. Restart GDM for the changes to take effect.
|
|
+
|
|
----
|
|
$ sudo systemctl restart gdm
|
