3068.0. "Digital LOGO at login on Ultrix systems" by KETJE::DIERICK (Have Telescopes, Will Travel) Thu Jul 12 1990 10:52


I haven't found a pointer to how to disable the DIGITAL logo on a login screen
on Ultrix. I know it is possible on VMS, but I would like to know if there
is a (supported) way of doing this on Ultrix too.

Thanks,

Dominique

3068.1*displayLogo: noUTRTSC::HELDENThu Jul 12 1990 11:3711
    
    In /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults there is a file called XSessionManager
    Search in the file for *displayLogo:     yes,  and change it to no.
    
    I don't why, but if you define it "no" then your login performance
    is very slow.
    
    Any body know why ?
    
    Have fun

3068.2I've noticed it too...WONDER::BENTOSun Aug 26 1990 13:394
    I noticed the same thing on ULTRIX and no one has been able to answer
    me...
    On VMS; how does one disable the logo?  Or better yet, change it?
    
3068.3Try dir/title=login for more information.SCAM::DIALMon Aug 27 1990 10:594
    $ DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC DECW$LOGIN_BACKGROUND device:[dir]foo.com
    
    Where "foo.com" is some command file which runs a program to write the
    root window.  If foo.com doesn't exist, the logo won't either.

	Define DECW$LOGIN_BACKGROUND to point to a com file that runs
	your logo.  Make sure that it is in the system table and that
	it is fully explicit in its path defs (disk, dir, ect)...

	rb

Also make sure that your dcltables are installed from sys$common:[syslib].
If they are installed from sys$specific:[syslib], the detached process which
draws your logo will fail with the status code D380E4 (%LOGIN-F-CLITBLFAIL)
