[Bug 928553] Re: Non-default wallpapers are not readable by Unity-Greeter
Personally, I haven't been affected by this bug anymore. (Also, I stopped having my HOME encrypted, and now I use full disk encryption, which is a better solution anyhow) Now, when you right click on an image and "Set as wallpaper", it'll get copied to ~/Pictures/Wallpapers this folder is world readable, so if the issue was with the folder, it's now solved. The file itself still retains its permissions, but I think this is on purpose. If a custom wallpaper is added with the + button inside the control panel, the picture is not copied, so you'd need to workaround that manually. I think all of this might still be an issue if the HOME is encrypted. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/928553 Title: Non-default wallpapers are not readable by Unity-Greeter To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/928553/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 928553] Re: Non-default wallpapers are not readable by Unity-Greeter
So... I just installed Precise and I saw this cool new feature of showing up the wallpaper in the login screen... I thought it was great until I used a custom wallpaper so I have this problem too. I have encrypted my home directory but I still want to show my non-default wallpaper (located in home/Images directory) in the login screen. Please fix this. Perhaps an option in the background options window will resolve the privacy issues you guys have discussed here. The option would be something like Show the wallpaper in the login screen (check for yes or no). So if that option is set to yes, I guess the wallpaper file should then be copied to '/usr/share/backgrounds' (for example) so the login screen has always access to the file and show the wallpaper. As for the comment of Sebastien Bacher, which I assume he would also tell he same thing, I must say that I'm not a programmer but I'm sure Ubuntu programmers welcome suggestions, and that they won't take them like we (non-programmers) are telling them what to do without giving any real help.

Most definitely, since this is a behaviour that annoys people and has an apparently unpredictable pattern (in reality, it's just that the partition is encrypted, but nothing prompts the user), this must be fixed.

If you protect your files to not be world-readable, or they are on an ecryptfs container, the greeter should not subvert this and copy them to other places. ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Won't Fix ** Changed in: unity-greeter (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/928553 Title: Non-default wallpapers are not readable by Unity-Greeter To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/928553/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
