How do I install a new GDM theme?

I just installed Arch for the first time. I have also downloaded a GDM theme but don't know to install it. I have created a "themes" directory inside "/usr/share/gdm/" and put the <themename> folder inside that. But don't know how I can tell GDM to use this theme.
Any help would be appreciated.

I used to use SLiM because I found setting themes was easier, but now I just don't use a login manager
that's pretty old. The new gdm is incompatible with older themes and you can't actually use them anymore. Now gdm is using the available gtk and icom themes from the system.

    how do i install a new printer with no dvd?

    Hook it up and see if it works. If it is one of the more common printer brands/models, it could very well have it's drivers installed, depending on how your OS was installed. If not, you can always go to the support site for your printer and download the drivers, if necessary.
    What kind of printer do you have? What OS and how was it installed?

    I can not install new update in Photoshop CC, does any one know, how I can install the new update?
    Photoshop CC show me, if I look on "Help" -> Update, there is no update. But my actual license is very old....
    I tried it, to do it manual. But there is also some problem.

    totally agree.  at this point i could care less if "apple" supports it.  i'm not renting my ipod touch, it's mine.  i paid for it.  and i'm not asking to do anything illegal with it, all i want is to get rid of this POS ios6 and get back to being able to use my ipod touch the way it was before...working.

    Open iTunes on your computer.  It should prompt you with the info that there is a new operating system available.  The safest way to go, is to download only.  Then when you are ready to let your phone sit for a while, choose to update it.

    How do I install a new font?

    Hi Vero1974, Thank you for replying. I appreciate you taking the time to help me with this problem.  Unfortunately clicking on the font did not work fo rme. I fort of found the answer on Apple's website in support. I had to go into applications and select the Font Book. The website's instructions did not work after that. I had to figure it out on my own. You are very kind for helping me. Have a wonderful weekend!

    I erased my HD and could not install lion. if I turn on the mac now all I see is a folder with a question-mark. How can I install a new operation system?

    Install or Reinstall Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
            the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Laptop died and I can't deactivate LR. How can I install on new laptop?

    Laptop died and I can't deactivate LR. How can I install on new laptop?

    Lightroom doesn’t have a formal activation process like Photoshop, although Adobe may be tracking something since they do want you to log in during the registration process.  I’m not sure.
    In general your license allows you to install it on up to two computers as long as you’re only ever using one at a time, so just download and install the latest update for LR on your new laptop and enter the serial number(s) or login to CC, whichever licensing model of LR you have.  CC does have a two-computer limit, but if you install on a third computer you’ll be asked to deactivate the other two and then only ever login to CC on the other computer that you want to license and it’ll be fine. 
    You can get the latest update to whatever LR series you have from the Adobe Updates page:
    http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates
    You will need to find your serial number(s).  If you registered LR with Adobe then they should be available online after logging in to adobe.com and a few clicks into Manage account.

  • How do I install a New hard drive and transfer my data?

    How do I format and make a bootable drive with all my data and then install it in my late 2008 MacBook Pro ?

    You can install a new drive in a USB enclosure and then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone your existing drive onto the new drive in the enclosure. Then simply install it in your computer (video -> http://eshop.macsales.com/installvideos/macbookpro_15_unibody_hd/).
    Good luck,

  • How do I install my new hard drive?

    I recently purchased a Wetern Digital Scorpio 250GB PATA HD for my Toshiba M35X-S114.  This was the drive recommened on the Toshiba Laptop Accessories page.  I physically instaled the new drive but can't figure out how to get it started.  I used the System Recovery DVD for my computer thinking I could install the original software on the new hard drive. The guy on the tech support phoneline said I could.  When I tried to use the recovery disc I got all the wall to the message where it prompts me to "press C for continue or A to abort".  When I press C, the cursor moves right below the prompt and just blinks.  The tech support line said the process may take several hours but I let it do this for for 3.5 hours and the cursor was still just blinking below the continue/abort message.  Is this normal?  Do I just need to be patient?  When I used the recovery disk on the old, original hard drive my computer was completely recovered in 45 minutes.  Oh, BIOS reads "none" next to hard disk.  I hpe this helps.

    If the bios doesn't recognize the hard drive it means one of three things.
    The bios doesn't have 48bit addressing support built in so it won't recognize a hard drive over 137gbs in size.  There is no work around for this.  The only option is to use a 120gb or smaller hard drive.  While the detailed specs for that model state ATA-6 it doesn't ensure that the bios does indeed have 48bit addressing support, although it should.
    The hard drive is not plugged in all the way.  Try reseating the hard drive to make sure it is making a good connection. You might need to do this a couple of times.
    The hard drive is defective.  In this case it would need to be replaced.
    One thing to check is to power on the system with the hard drive installed and the drive bay cover off.  Put your finger on the hard drive to see if you feel any vibrations coming from it.  If not, then the drive is either defective or not plugged in fully.  If you do feel a vibrations it more than likely means the bios doesn't support a drive that large or there is some internal problem with the drive. 
    Until the hard drive is properly recognized by the hard drive you will NOT be able to use the recovery disk on it to restore the operating system.
    If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

    No. The only people that can help you are at an Apple store.
    Just how in the world did you forget a Boot EFI password?
    Next time you buy a computer don't set a EFI/BOIS password. If you must WRITE IT DOWN so you can always refer to it.
