Re: GDM Backgrounds

[Ben FrantzDale <bfrantzdale hmc edu>]

I believe it was a recent addition. I'm running gdm-2.2.2.1-ximian.8 on
Mandrake 7.2. I think if you upgrade to gdm >= 2.2.2 you'll get the
config program.

grepping my /etc/gdm/gdm.conf I have the lines:

BackgroundType=2
BackgroundImage=
BackgroundColor=#363047
BackgroundProgram=
BackgroundScaleToFit=true
BackgroundRemoteOnlyColor=true

I suspect this is what you want to be editing...
