I had this same problem today. The gnome-control-center package is version 1:2.21.2-0ubuntu2. I tried manually editing the backgrounds.xml file, but that caused the background manager (or whatever it's called) to clear and reset it to the default Gnome backgrounds. Now I can't add any of my own anymore and I'm stuck with the default ones :(
If the bug doesn't appear in a later/upstream version, could you put that in Ubuntu Hardy please? -- gnome-appearance-properties no wallpaper add in GUI on Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173432 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
