Title:
  Messed-up Xubuntu login background at startup

Status in “lightdm-gtk-greeter” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I have this problem with the Xubuntu login screen :

  Before:

  Then I do:
  CTRL+ALT+F1 + log in
  sudo service lightdm restart (sometimes I need to do it twice or three times)

  And then after restarting the service:

  I've tried multiple manipulations like disabling the dynamic login
  background (Gnome settings?) or specify other backgrounds but it
  doesn't seem to have
  any effect.

  I don't get why I have to restart the service sometimes multiple times
  to get the greeter background to display properly.

  Thank you for your time and help,
  Laurent
