Public bug reported:

I have LightDM 1.0.6-0ubuntu1.2 installed on a minimal Oneiric system.
There is a /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter-ubuntu.conf file, containing
the following:

    [greeter]
    background=/usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png

The named background file does not exist. (Not even the
/usr/share/backgrounds/ directory is present on this system.)

When LightDM starts up, the background is set to a strong magenta color
(looks like #FF00FF) that is ugly as sin. A more attractive fallback
(black? grey?) would be helpful, and better care should be taken in the
configuration not to name a missing file in the first place.
