The definition of the default color in main-window.vala is responsible for the initial background color, the other one is the fallback for if opening the image specified by the configuration fails.
My question is, why is the initial background color shown at all? Why doesn't the configured image show instead? The draw function is definitely being called, as can be seen by the fact that the user-list, etc are showing on top of the initial background. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/970024 Title: lightDM has purple backgroundcolor before the background image is loaded Status in Unity Greeter: Confirmed Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Im using Precise with the latest updates and lightdm 1.1.9-0ubuntu1. Whenever lightdm is starting on bootup or logging out, there is a purple background shown before the real background image is loaded. I have attached a video demonstrates the problem.
