[Bug 1128492] Re: wallpaper not updating
if you use nemo for Ubuntu (without Cinnamon extensions) and disable Nautilus to be launched, the problem happens again. You will need to check if nautilus is not operative and in this case, re-use gnome- settings daemon -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1128492 Title: wallpaper not updating To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1128492/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1128492] Re: wallpaper not updating
This affect me too. Unity-greeter stuck with wallpaper set before upgrade to 13.04. Wallpaper doesn't change even when I'm manually edit in dconf it's name. When I'm trying change greeter background using Ubuntu Tweak, new wallpaper shows up for a little moment, and after that again visible is the old one. Even when I deleted from /usr/share/backrounds this wallpaper, greeter does not show my actual wallpaper, instead default wallpaper shows up. And now command from Sebastien's post returns name of the wallpaper, that no longer exists in /usr/share/backgrounds! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1128492 Title: wallpaper not updating To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-greeter/+bug/1128492/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1128492] Re: wallpaper not updating
Thank you for the bug report Rick. There is a long standing known issue: user wallpapers, if stored in a non world readable directory, are not visible to the greeter. That's bug #928553. The reason is that only the URL is shared (to not "leak" private infos), so the greater (which runs as another user) needs to be able to read the file to display it Is the directory the image is stored in world readable? Not sure that's the case there though, since you seem to do twice the same steps and that should lead to the same directory to be used/result if you run "gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri", does it list the correct image? ** Package changed: lightdm (Ubuntu) => unity-greeter (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: unity-greeter (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1128492 Title: wallpaper not updating To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-greeter/+bug/1128492/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
