Ubuntu has always been an easily customizable desktop operating system, from complete icon themes to window decorations. Unfortunately with the release of the latest version of Ubuntu Karmix Koala, the GDM (login screen) customization section was removed as the boot up process was changed significantly. Thanks to a new application called gdm2setup, effortless customization ability is now once again possible.

Garth Johnson and Nick Glynn, two kind Ubuntu users have developed this application in the hopes that it will help Ubuntu users overcome the frustration of no longer having the ability to change the look and feel of their login screen.
