David, Rick, MT, and wheover else: gdm seems to use the default background image, and so far I haven't found a place to configure it to do otherwise. To configure it otherwise seems that we need gdm to have a home directory in which to store its GConf settings, and gdm user currently doesn't have a home directory (maybe there's a reason for this, I don't know, or maybe there was just never a reason for it before).
The default background is /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png. It seems like our two options are to either use the xsplash background there (which sounds like a bad idea to me), or create a home directory for gdm user to store GConf settings (which sounds like something that we should talk over with pitti). -- xsplash timing out too early https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/435522 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
