Bug#608603: gdm3: Default background cuts off the logo on widescreen monitors

[Aaron Barany]

Package: gdm3
Version: 2.30.5-6
Severity: minor

This is more of a bug with the new theme for Squeeze than gdm3, but I wasn't
sure where to report that kind of bug. I have a widescreen monitor (1920x1200)
and when the gdm3 login screen comes up with the default background image, the
Debian logo is cut off in the middle. Widescreen monitors are very common among
desktop users, and having the logo cropped by the screen boundaries looks
sloppy.
