Crowz is a very cool and stylish distro to use (I like dark themes) but Calamares crashes every time I try to encrypt the system during installation hmm

@brocashelm : Thanks a lot ! I did the sudo nano /etc/slim.conf command, changed the theme, saved and it works ! I'm happy smile

Then if I chose a personal image instead of a preinstalled theme as background, what command should I do ?

I know there's a way to do it with LightDM but I don't want to install it.

@rbit : Thanks for the answer but I don't know how to modify the files (Devuan and  Gnu-Linux are new things for me).

And when I try to edit /etc/slim.conf, I can't save because the file is in "read-only mode".

Hello !

I've been using Devuan Excalibur since a short time and I appreciate it. However, I would like to change the blue Login background that is too flashy for my eyes (I prefer darker and softer themes), but I don't know how to do it. Does anybody know how change this background ?

Thank you in advance for your help ! smile
