LightDM will display the user added wallpaper (at any resolution I believe) - but only if it has permission to read the file (i.e. the relevant folders and file both allow "Others" read access). I had problems with this since even though my Pictures folder and image were readable, a subfolder therein was not. While this makes sense, I assume the default behavior should be more user-friendly: if a user adds a background image, LightDM will also display it.
I found this behavior both on a computer upgraded from Natty and one with a fresh Precise install. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992646 Title: LightDM does not use users wallpaper if not selected from default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-greeter/+bug/992646/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
