"In my opinion, this is the best solution: Replace this line in /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default
BACKCOLOR="#dab082" With this: BACKCOLOR=`gdmflexiserver --command="GET_CONFIG greeter/BackgroundColor $DISPLAY"`" That did not work for me, however. If I replace the line in /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default # Default value if [ "x$BACKCOLOR" = "x" ]; then BACKCOLOR="#dab082" fi to # Default value if [ "x$BACKCOLOR" = "x" ]; then BACKCOLOR="x" fi Then it obey the login manager colour settings. -- login background color is hardcoded https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132833 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
