The core problem is that xfce4settings daemon, whilst spawned by ubiquity-dm it end up defunct. it should be running properly and thus displaying background during ubiquity-dm session. this is a regression in the xfce4settings or it's looking for something that is missing in the environment. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1375893 Title: Black background to Try/Install Dialogue To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1375893/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've found a potential workaround to this issue... 1) Add feh package to the live installation. 2) Remove lines 400-403 from https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/utopic/ubiquity/utopic/view/head:/bin/ubiquity-dm#L400 To test... 1) Boot live image. 2) Switch to TTY1 3) Comment out lines 400-403 in the above file. 4) Install the feh package. 5) Stop processes: sudo stop lightdm ; sudo stop ubiquity ; sudo pkill -9 X 6) Start ubiquity: sudo start ubiquity Ubiquity now displays the background. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1375893 Title: Black background to Try/Install Dialogue To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1375893/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
