Although this may encounter copyright problems, still thanks for sharing this. And I thinks for personal use, this could be allowed couldnt it?

The startup isn't awful but the logout is so bad i couldn't understand what was said. I didn't bother listening to it more than once.

I am wondering about copyright... Not sure it falls under fair use. I guess since you aren't selling them or asking for donations it might be okay.

Good luck on your next endeavor.

I don't know if these would be covered under fair use.

At the very least, a CC license would be better than GPL.

IMO, these should be removed.

They're also pretty bad edits.

Thanks, but that wasn´t what i mean, what i mean is that once you convert the file, you go to System Preferences/Sounds and when i choose the converted file in the start up sound menu it won´t work. But i found out, that it was that you could only put ten seconds of a sound, that´s why it wans´t working, therefore when i try to convert the file it gives me an error. But just another thing, i used Quicktime to take 10 seconds of a sound and paste it on a new player, then export it to wav format. Is there any program that can do that it Ubuntu, cause as far as i know, there´s no Quicktime for Ubuntu.

---------------
sudo apt-get install mpg123
mpg123 -w somefile.wav somefile.mp3
---------------
somefile.mp3 is your mp3 file and somfile.wav is a file that will be created after the conversion.

Where are the login sounds located? I looked in /usr/share/sounds. I don't see them there.

For login sounds you can copy files anywhere you want, and then go to:
Administration->Login Window->Accessibility and choose files from there.

I don't have a Administration->Login Window->Accessibility in Fedora 9 64-bit. Could you give me a command to run that? Check what it is with alacarte or gnome-system-monitor.
