After upgrade noticed that the unity-greeter version of the background (i.e. with password box) transferred to desktop background (i.e. it had the password box). Was not possible to set another background via system-settings. Using dconf -editor I got it to disappear from the desktop but not the greeter; desktop however now blank. -- 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
