Rainer Rohde (rainer-rohde) wrote : lightdm -- no longer shows wallpaper / no smooth transition

lightdm seems to have lost its ability to a) display the user's wallpaper before logon, and b) the transition to the desktop while showing that selected wallpaper.

Now, it only shows a black screen instead of the wallpaper during the login process.

It used to work much better before, so this is a regression.
