Take the 2-minute tour ×  I know there have been solutions for
previous versions of Ubuntu, but what is the best way to go

fine, but before the login manager shows there is a weird torn
up flicker of sorts.  Any help is appreciated.  share|improve

includes a script to make it easy.  share|improve this answer
