unreadable.  See attachment.

Whatever was changed to day really messed things up.  Gsettings still
fails.  Turns wallpaper to brown however terminal window screen text
garbaged.  Never did that before today's updates.

There seem to be a number of logs - is there any of what updates were
installed today?  I couldn't find any in /var/log

Screen is messed up.  Let me try today's Daily Build which likely
doesn't have today's updates.  Might work better....

Title:
  gsettings fails to set wallpaper

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  until recent updates,

  gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri
  'file:////home/jerry/Pictures/Shark_Island.jpg'

  reset wallpaper to the desired picture.  Most of the time Wily boots
  to a horizontally hashed wallpaper which used to be corrected by doing
  gsettings once or twice or three times, now I have to go to settings >
  wallpaper > to set the jpg several times until it clears up.

  Now gsettings fails, gets the original brown screen.  gsettings is
  broken failing to set the desired wallpaper.
