[Bug 889671] Re: show screenshot on login screen

 

We wouldn't want to waste bandwidth or CPU to get screenshots every 5 seconds for clients idling in the login screen.
It would be nice to get only one.
But that's rather complex, did the client reach the login screen or is it showing the xorg black initialization screen? Does the client have X at all or does it use SCREEN_07=shell? etc etc
Furthermore, it's nice to see the green, blue and red computer icons representing thin, fat and standalone clients, we'd lose that if we only showed a white LDM (or LightDM) screen for all clients.

So marking as won't fix.
