How I can change qubes logo and text on xscreen login?
Perhaps this could help: Swap-out scary image on XScreenSaver with QubesOS "Q" · Issue #6425 · QubesOS/qubes-issues · GitHub
Moved to User Support
Do you mean the logo and text on the screensaver, or on the login
screen?
Do you have the replacement image already stored in dom0?
on the xscreen
I read it but I can`t understand how I can change qubes logo not scarry image
There is no scary image anymore, that Issue is completed. The comment I linked to explains how to change any image on the log screen.
I do not know what “xscreen” means.
Was there a reason you did not answer the questions I asked?
Do you mean the logo and text on the screensaver, or on the login
screen?
Do you have the replacement image already stored in dom0?
Unless you say specifically what you want to do, no one will be able to help you.
yes I mean how I can change qubes logo and text on screensaver window, I want use Qubes without tell everybody “hi every body I using Qubes”.
no I have not the replacement image in dom0, are it is shoud to be a **.png or other ?

Heads up @anon_chan: the advice given at the time involved installing an older version of the screen saver package. I don’t know if that’s still something that may be suggested as a way to go.
To be clear: when the only difference between the latest and the immediately previous version was the change of logo, that could have been fine. However, I haven’t followed changes in that package and I don’t know what else you might be loosing by installing an older version today.
Qubes-OS patched XScreenSaver to add some patches, including the Qubes-OS logo and Qubes-OS name (reason: see #6425).
Related resources:
- the qubes-xscreensaver repository
- the logo replace commit
- the text replace commit
- the rpm package spec.in recipe
So the above spec.in recipe says the images are utils/images/logo-*
.
The good solution : patch the qubes-xscreensaver with your text and images, build the package, install it.
The ugly solution, you could try something like:
- image : do a backup of the below image, and replace it your image.
[user@dom0 ~]$ rpm -ql xscreensaver-base-5.45-6.fc32.x86_64|grep xpm
/usr/share/pixmaps/xscreensaver.xpm
- text : do a backup of the below text files, and add your changes
[user@dom0 ~]$ rpm -ql xscreensaver-base-5.45-6.fc32.x86_64|grep /etc/xs
/etc/xscreensaver
/etc/xscreensaver/XScreenSaver.ad
/etc/xscreensaver/XScreenSaver.ad.hacks
/etc/xscreensaver/XScreenSaver.ad.header
/etc/xscreensaver/XScreenSaver.ad.tail
Maybe it does work, maybe it doesn’t work… I don’t know your skills so do only the actions you understand…
@unman will give you some (better) advises…
thanks @ludovic
I`m not advanced but I will try understand your explanation and will do it with my self
If you are not “advanced”, I suggest that you take the easy route I
suggested before.
Remove the Qubes screensaver, and replace it with standard xscreensaver
shipped by Fedora.
The method is explained here
