Maybe this could be helpful. I used this background on my notebook and on my desktop computer for a long time. The wallpaper was located in /usr/share/backgrounds/ and it has been added as background by using the add button which opens the file chooser dialog to select a background.
One day I removed the background with 'sudo rm /usr/share/backgrounds/stormgreen.png', but the stormgreen background was still the current background of the gnome desktop. Then I opend the dialog to select another background, I clicked on the add button, a file chooser dialog opens, I closed the file chooser dialog, I closed the background selection window, I reopened the background selection window and it was frozen. Maybe the Problem depends on the German (Deutsch) localization. I hope this helps a little bit more. I have crashed the dialog of my notebook and the dialog of my desktop computer with this method. ** Attachment added: "The used background" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11493720/stormgreen.png -- gnome-background-properties freezes when removing the current background from the file system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/184833 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
