I'm on F9 and I dont seem to have the menu option for Login Settings where you can configure auto-login, gdm themes, etc. I've searched for just about every combination I can think of in yum but haven't found anything.
So, does anyone know:
a) Why its not in F9?
b) What the name of package that provides this?
Thanks

Thanks seve, I'm actually just trying to change the gdm theme. I only mentioned the auto login so everyone would know what app I'm referring to. Any idea how to do this without the "login settings" app? Thanks

Check http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/NewGdm
Release Notes
* Mention the new features that are available on the login screen
* Explain that gdmsetup got replaced by a yet-to-be-written new configuration tool
* Explain that PolicyKit can now be used to control shutdown/reboot privileges

If you look in /usr/share/backgrounds/waves you will find what you are looking for. I might hack together a tool for changing the GDM background. If I get around to it I will put up a link here.
