greeter-session=lightdm-webkit2-greeter
user-session=your-session (gnome,cinnamon,xfce...)

Installation

Can be installed through the AUR.

To select luminos as default theme just change the webkit-theme= in /etc/lightdm/lightdm-webkit2-greeeter.conf to luminos.

Uninstallation

To uninstall, simply restore the greeter-session property of the /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf file and restart your computer (or at least lightdm).

You may also want to :

  • Remove the folder luminos which was created in /usr/share/lightdm-webkit/themes/
  • Restore the webkit-theme property of the /etc/lightdm/lightdm-webkit-greeter.conf file

User icons management

To change users icons, there are two options :

  • Create a .face file in the user's home folder in which you put a jpg or png resource

Or

  • Create a resource named with the user's login in /var/lib/AccountsService/icons/
  • Edit /var/lib/AccountsService/users/<userLogin> and add a property Icon targeting the icon resource you just created
