Bug#655328: gdm3: No, your mistake.
This time it's your mistake, my friend. The file /etc/gdm3/greeter.gconf.defaults is not present on my system. However, /etc/gdm3/greeter.gconf-defaults is present. The corrected suggestion of Josselin for completely removing the background worked on at least one computer. [org.gnome.desktop.background] picture-options='none' primary-color='#00' As soon as I try it on another computer, I'll report here. To the best of my knowledge, the documentation for this feature is still missing for debian, which made the feature unusable for the vast public. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Changing /etc/gdm3/greeter.gsettings also works on another computer. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

:) sorry if I sounded harsh, I hadn't read the other replies. Interesting that you don't have greeter.gconf.defaults (it must have been deleted some time as it still comes in the package - but I think Debian has this thing of not reinstating the config file even when we purge the package and reinstall it again), I had a problem trying to change the cursor theme and only succeeded after editing greeter.gconf.defaults

Ops, yes, it was a typo (now I read your answer properly).
