SuSE 9.2 Splash
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
This KDM theme resembles the SuSE 9.2 bootsplash to have the same theme from grub to kdm in SuSE 9.2 (or SuSE 9.3 if you're feeling nostalgic)
-- installing --
KDM supports theming as of KDE 3.4. To upgrade KDE, add the following mirror to your installation sources:
http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/ftp.suse.com/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_9.2/yast-source/
If you're using the additional "guru" package repository, also add their separate kde-3.4 repository.
I'm not sure whether there is an official way to upgrade all packages, I pulled off this trick:
- open the "Install and Remove software" panel
- choose "Installation summary" in the "filter"
- enable the "Keep" option in "Show packages with status"
- open the "packages" menu, check "all in this list -> "update if newer version available".
Finally extract the files in /opt/kde3/share/apps/kdm/themes/
-- enabling the theme --
The installation of this theme works like any other theme, by enabling the following settings in the "greeter" section of /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc:
UseTheme=True
Theme=/opt/kde3/share/apps/kdm/themes/SuSE92Splash/
(for GNOME fans: the kdm theme format is identical to format gdm uses, but I haven't tested the theme with gdm though)

Sorry I forgot... KDM supports gdm-like themes as of KDE 3.4. I've added some information about this now.
