Steam at your Login Screen script updated!

By Thomaz dos Reis -
This is a script to enable you to login to Steam's Big Picture mode directly from login that we featured on here before.
QuoteI've just released and updated in my steam-login project that aims to put STEAM BigPicture mode at login screen.

More info and download at: https://github.com/thor27/steam-login#readme

Thanks!


      Version 5
    Added STEAM badge icon for lightdm, fixed bad quality package and improved package information, script modified to monitor windows, so steam always recover focus after gameplay and there is no need anymore to click in ok to close steam on non-hacked version
      Version 4
    Improved compatibility with more games, support for nvidia optimus (if bumblebee and/or Primus is present), restart steam if it crashes, hack to close steam when not using the "hacked version", workaround for TF2 black screen bug and for text fonts bug with some specific fonts settings.
