Here is the problem as I was able to see it. If you change the
background in the Login Manager it adds the full path to the wallpaper
file in /etc/kde3/kdm/backgroundrc. Changing it back to 'Default Blue'
changes this line to Wallpaper=/usr/share/wallpapers/default_blue.jpg.
When first changing the background 'default_blue' is selected, after you
change this and leave you never get that option again, only 'Default
Blue'.
/etc/init.d/kdm is looking for "if grep -q
"Theme=@@@ToBeReplacedByDesktopBase@@@" ${KDMRC} && grep -q
"Wallpaper=default_blue.jpg" ${BACKGROUNDRC}" the file without the full
path.
I just changed my /etc/kde3/kdm/backgroundrc file to have the line
"Wallpaper=default_blue.jpg" instead of
Wallpaper=/usr/share/wallpapers/default_blue.jpg to enable the KDM
theme manager to have any effect.
