====== Add pictures to IRIX Visual Login ====== As stated by the clogin(1) man page: The standard user icons may be replaced with color or black & white images. clogin will check for the files $HOME/.icons/login.icon, /usr/local/lib/faces/$USER and /usr/lib/faces/$USER for login images, where $HOME represents the user's home directory and $USER represents the user's login name. The files must be in SGI image library format, and should be 100 by 100 pixels in size or smaller (although larger images will be scaled down automatically). The images must be either RGB color or black & white images; colormap images cannot be displayed correctly. ===== Generating image file ===== The simpler way to generate a 100x100 pixels image file in SGI image library format, is to use imgworks(1) or the more recent imgview(1). These tools are very straightforward. ===== Install the image file in the right dir ===== The simpler solution is to save the file as:$HOME/.icons/login.icon But you can also put them in : /usr/local/lib/faces/$USER or /usr/lib/faces/$USER Note that $USER is actually the name of the file, not a directory! ~~NOTOC~~
