Description beojan 2008-01-27 15:33:29 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.0.0)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

If I use the wallpaper change to change the wallpaper, it sometimes succeeds and changes my wallpaper, but usually does not.

I have a similar problem: changing the wallpaper usually works (default KDE wallpapers), but after rebooting this setting is gone and the background is just white.

That isn't the bug I reported. When I select a new wallpaper, the change does NOT take effect. however, I also have the problem reported by Daniel K

I have the same problem reported by daniel K

Tony and Daniel K,

Try the packages of 4.0.1 when they are made available from your distro, the blank screen issues has been fixed.  Open a new bug if you see it come back.

As for this bug report, do likewise, but re-open this bug report if it happens in the new packages.

I actually gave up on 4.0.0, so know I am going to wait for 4.1, since I 
was actually evaluating 4.0.0 for inclusion in the next release of my 
Linux distribution.
In the meantime, I am just going to use 3.5.8.

4.0.1 and the bug is here, change the wallpaper then the background goes white
