You may have noticed after upgrading to Xubuntu Gutsy that your background color turns brown for a few seconds, before returning back again. If you have, then you may have also noticed that it doesn’t really match well.
Turns out the program is straight in the login manager. Specifically, in the file /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default
. Thankfully, it’s easy to fix.
Open up a terminal (Xfce Menu > Accessories > Terminal) and run the following:
wget http://ubuntu.freehostia.com/Default
sudo mv Default /etc/gdm/PreSession/
rm Default
Log out and in, and the background color will be gone. 😀 Enjoy!
