Hi Brian,

Below is the content of my greeter.gconf-defaults file.

Note here that the banner-message does not appear either but the disable-user and disable-restart-buttons both work strangely enough.


[org/gnome/desktop/background]
picture-uri='file:///usr/share/images/desktop-base/bg-login.svg'
picture-options='zoom'

[org/gnome/login-screen]
logo='/usr/share/icons/gnome/48x48/places/debian-swirl.png'
fallback-logo='/usr/share/icons/gnome/48x48/places/debian-swirl.png'
disable-user-list=true
disable-restart-buttons=true
banner-message-enable=true
banner-message-text='Welcome to Debian 8'
