might be very basic answer but i have found that for 12.04 (not
studio) the login background is linked to the desktop background.
Unless you choose a picture outside of the default images offered. In
which case I seem to recall it defaults to a particular background
different from your desktop background.
Last i checked I still had the small font problem and the unable to
shutdown if other user is logged in problem (and gives no feedback as
to why or how).
I entered this in the terminal:
sudo gedit /etc/lightdm/unity-greeter.conf
and in the section under [greeter] changed the filepath after background=
It had another file referenced there which was from an earlier version
of Ubuntu.
Changing the image filepath to an existing image I wanted to use did
nothing, I still have the dark background at login.
My username, the Samba user and Guest login names are all in white and
visible. The icons top right are hard to see, and when I click the
button next to the login box to set the desktop environment I want, the
text is black against the dark background and only visible when one is
highlighted with a white background.
So how can I get the login background changed to something else which works?
