Default Orange screen between login and desktop

Linux Ubuntu 7.10 Gusty Gibbons

When booting in Gusty my first screen is grub then usplash then login and then an orange screen with no logo or script after it is the desktop

I can change grub,usplash,login,and the desktop.
I cannot find and or change the orange screen

Would someone help me change or eliminate this screen

Thanks
Ray

Mike,thanks for the reply

gdmsetup is the same as the login manager

It changes the color or theme in the login screen but not in the orange screen

Have not found a manager to change this awful orange screen

Have you tried changing the default color in /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default ?

Thanks again for the reply
This solved the problem of the color change

Opened /etc/gdm/presession/default in a terminal

Found default color at the bottom of the page
Changed same to different color until I got the one I wanted

Thanks again for the excellent help
