Title:
  after upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04 beta, the X11 login screen does not
  use the specified background

Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am running ubuntu with XFCE, and here is the content of my /etc/xdg
  /xdg-xubuntu/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf

  #
  # background = Background file to use, either an image path or a color (e.g. #772953)
  # theme-name = GTK+ theme to use
  # icon-theme-name = Icon theme to use
  # font-name = Font to use
  # xft-antialias = Whether to antialias Xft fonts (true or false)
  # xft-dpi = Resolution for Xft in dots per inch (e.g. 96)
  # xft-hintstyle = What degree of hinting to use (hintnone, hintslight, hintmedium, or hintfull)
  # xft-rgba = Type of subpixel antialiasing (none, rgb, bgr, vrgb or vbgr)

  background=/lib/plymouth/themes/xubuntu-logo/xubuntu-greybird.png
  theme-name=Bluebird
  icon-theme-name=elementary-xfce
  font-name=Droid Sans 10
  xft-antialias=true
  xft-dpi=96
  xft-hintstyle=slight
  xft-rgba=rgb
  show-language-selector=true
  show-indicators=

  The login screen, after the upgrade, does not use the background
  specified above, but rather shows one of my desktop background ("one
  of" -- dual monitor) stretched to the whole screen.

  The file /lib/plymouth/themes/xubuntu-logo/xubuntu-greybird.png is
  there.

  Curiously, changing "theme-name=Bluebird" to "theme-name=Blackbird"
  does have an effect, so the config file is being read on startup.
