Bug Description
Release: Linux Mint 15 "olivia"
Edition: Cinnamon 64-bit
I rebooted my system yesterday, and when it started my wallpaper was gone. Just a black background.
I've tried the usual ways of changing the background, via right click on the desktop, and via the settings tools.
Each time the Backgrounds widget opens, I select an image, and then close it.
Nothing happens. I'm still stuck with a black background.
This a very new install - about two or three weeks, with no oddball things added - it's almost pure Mint out of the box.
I vaguely recall reading somewhere that this is tied to Nemo? When this problem started I was running 1.8.3, which came installed. I'm now running the latest Nemo nightly 1.8.5, but no change.
I'm running nemo nightly and have the same problem.
(note - when the machine locks - .. the background is as i set it, otherwise it's BLACK..)
