I don't have the time to do a testround again, but I can give pointers for whoever has time to have a look:
The patch is https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/commit/?id=ddc4f511abd64d69c1150a41475d0a1ebac01dbb, in particular: systemBackground = new Meta.Background({ meta_display: global.display }); [res, topColor] = Clutter.Color.from_string('#6D2169'); [res, bottomColor] = Clutter.Color.from_string('#370026'); systemBackground.set_gradient(GDesktopEnums.BackgroundShading.VERTICAL, topColor, bottomColor); This is hardcoded in the Shell code (I made it conditional by session type). This was made to match what is in the Yaru.css file: #lockDialogGroup { background: none; background-color: none; background-gradient-direction: vertical; background-gradient-start: #6D2169; background-gradient-end: #370026; } As I don't have bionic/cosmic eyes as yours, for me, for the short while this screen appeared, ti seemed the same gradient, with the same VERTICAL transition. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1789356 Title: Dark purple (noise) background flashes up briefly during the login animation since Yaru was introduced To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1789356/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
