Hmmm. I've had a similar problem logging in as a user. I vaguely |
| 9 |
remember using kcontrol to uncheck the "common background" (which |
| 10 |
wasn't coming up -- it was just murky grey instead), flipping |
| 11 |
through a couple of the desktops until the background was actually |
| 12 |
set, and then locking in the common background again. |
| 13 |
I don't know what the root cause (so to speak) actually is |
| 14 |
for the strange behaviour, though. |
