Hmm, I didn't know Xubuntu had its own artwork.
Boot with the 'break=casper-bottom' kernel parameter, run 'chroot /root
nano /usr/bin/ubiquity-dm', and comment out the following piece of code
by putting a '#' symbol at the start of each line:
if self.frontend == 'gtk_ui' or self.frontend == 'mythbuntu_ui':
if os.access(background, os.R_OK):
import gtk
pixbuf = gtk.gdk.pixbuf_new_from_file(background)
root = gtk.gdk.get_default_root_window()
(root_width, root_height) = root.get_size()
scaled = pixbuf.scale_simple(root_width, root_height,
gtk.gdk.INTERP_BILINEAR)
(pixmap, mask) = scaled.render_pixmap_and_mask(0)
root.set_back_pixmap(pixmap, False)
root.clear()
gtk.gdk.flush()
... then type 'exit' to boot normally. Does it come up with the
background you expect, or none at all?
I suspect that in fact we need to run xfdesktop in order to get the
correct default background.
