Description Unknown 2009-04-19 12:04:00 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Setting a background image for the login manager does not work: When I choose "picture" as background and then select a picture, it neither gets loaded to tte preview on the right (it stays blue instead) nor does it show its name in the dropdown list.
However, selecting "diashow" and adding only one picture (the one I want to have) works fine. The only problem there is that after clicking "Ok" in the diashow set-up, the preview is wrong - it shows only a part of the picture (it looks like it didn't get scaled but cropped). After restarting the settings panel, the preview shows the correct picture until I enter and leave the set-up window again.

This is KDE 4.2.2 from Kubuntu 9.04 RC.
