RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

What is a sosreport and how do I create it in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.6 and later?

Comment 5 Joe Wright 2015-07-08 19:27:24 UTC 
The following has also been reported:

User changed one monitor (display) wallpaper type setting to slideshow, applied, but nothing effect. User logout and login, both display showing the slideshow wallpaper, but only show the first picture. Never roll or show to other pictures. User logout and login again. The wallpaper shows the second picture and just stay. The slideshow will not slide.

The function works in RHEL 6.4. We updated our workstations to RHEL 6.6 and the wallpaper not working.

I tried to install a fresh RHEL 6.6 workstation instead of upgrade. The new install RHEL 6.6 has the same problem in wallpaper.
