Hello everybody!
Guys, considering that the F36 login screen with DDE 20.2 is fully functional and it is available in the repositories ( https://fedora.pkgs.org/36/fedora-x86_64/deepin-session-shell-5.4.112-3.fc36.x86_64.rpm.html ), is there a possibility to install it correctly on F36 with gnome 42.1 and change his ugly face?
See:
After installing:
sudo dnf install lightdm and sudo dnf install lightdm-gtk all dependencies are installed, but it is only recognized in F36 with Gnome the lightdm-gtk-greeter, the lightdm-deepin-greeter that I want as login screen does not enable.
The DDE (lightdm-deepin-greeter) screen gives a better appearance on the initial login screen and it would be a relief to get that black screen looking like a graveyard door.
Can you help me with this issue if possible?
Desired screen and, if possible, install on F36 with Gnome 42.1 is the one below
Below is the installation history and the changes I made to see if I enabled the desired login screen, being the F36 with DDE 20.2, but I couldn’t and that’s why I ask for help.

I saw that there is an arrow to enable the logs to be shorter, but I can’t imagine where it is. If anyone can show me I’d be grateful.
I learned a bit about lightdm in this debate here
( 1000383 – systemctl enable/disable of unit does not respect default target. )
