The point is that by default, changing the wallpaper does work. You have to deliberately install a tweak tool and break it yourself in order for it to be broken. ** Changed in: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you

I would like to support the request to make this more important. You can't ship something out like this to normal customers. Changing the wallpaper is pretty basic and must work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.
