Hi, i took the night to test it :
here it is a. Fresh install bookworm 12.7.0 - uncheck gnome - check xfce - no root passwd - only 1st account b. Change in .*conf files - /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf - greeter-hide-users=false - greeter-allow-guest=true - /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf - user-background=true in [greeter] section c. reboot d. change wallpaper of 1st user. - use wallpaper in /usr/share/backgrounds/xfce e. issue : Wallpaper is not displayed by lightdm f. go to log files /var/log/lightdm - see files lightdm.log.1 et seat0-greeter.log.1- issue : WARNING : Error getting user list from org.freedesktop.Accounts :[....]
g. solve issue : sudo apt install accountsservice - hint : accountsservice should be a dependencies of lightdm package. h. reboot i. issue : Wallpaper is not displayed by lightdm j. go to log files /var/log/lightdm - see files lightdm.log.2 et seat0-greeter.log.2 - no more warning in lightdm.log nor in seat0-greeter.log- issue : WARNING : Error getting user list from org.freedesktop.Accounts :[....]
k. change wallpaper of 1st user. (new step that i've not done on my install) - use another from /usr/share/backgrounds/xfce l. logout m. Victory : the walpaper is displayedSo as a final there's only the package accountsservice which is missing as dependencies of lightdm package
Could you please make the change. regards, Emmanuel
