I can reproduce that. Apparently when you select a custom wallpaper the Background value in AccountsService gets updated to an entry below $HOME/.cache/gnome- control-center/backgrounds/ that is not world-readable.
In contrast, if you select a standard wallpaper, the Background value gets set to a (world-readable) entry below /usr/share/backgrounds/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926726 Title: Unity greeter no longer shows user backgrounds, worked 2 weeks ago To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-greeter/+bug/926726/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
