Public bug reported: Before I start, let me say this. I have a dark GDM theme, a black solid fill background with a dark wallpaper. I've set the GDM login screen to black as well and I've even edited /etc/gdm/gdm.conf. I've already gotten the 'use Ray-Bans' remark in #ubuntu+1 ;) and the tip to file bug, so here it is.
What happens when I log in from the GDM? The GDM disappears, a bright yellow/brown color fills the screen, my custom splash screen is shown while components are loaded (the background is still yellow/brown), the splash screen disappears while my settings and custom desktop are shown. Finally everything is dark again. The brown/yellowish color must be defined somewhere and should be editable, but where? It appears to be a downstream issue according to someone in #GNOME (haven't confirmed this though). ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [gutsy] Can not change default GNOME splash background color https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/140821 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
