How To Change The Background Image of Login Screen in Centos/RHEL
Hi,
Are you not bored with the same old background pic of your centos/rhel, lets put some
refreshing and beautiful picture of our own choice, We have done this stuff in windows and played much by changing the backgroud image of login panel
lets try out in Linux
We have tried on Centos 6 and will work well on rhel 7 as well
Steps:
1. Select a picture of your choice, and paste in the /usr/share/background
2. Update the default.xml with new picture name
Just 2 Easy Step 😊
1. Select a picture of your choice, and paste in the /usr/share/backgrounds
This is the old boring background image which comes by default, lets select picture
This looks beautiful isn't it lets put it into the background folder which is /usr/share/background
As you can see i have the image on my centos desktop, you can drag and drop from desktop to the background folder but i prefer command line..
You can check if it has been copied by doing ls to that directory,
Step 2:Update the default.xml with new picture name
this file is in the same directory where you just pasted the image so just open the file using
vi default.xml
And change the old image name with the new name
yaah just save it esc >> shift+zz
finally you are done
And then,
HAVE FUN AND KEEP USING LINUX !!!
And please feel free to post any question, suggestions are mostly welcomed
Thank you !!!
Have a gud day

HI Vijay thank you for yur reply...
if it is on virtualbox
Settings->General->Advanced->Shared Clipboard (Bidirectional)
