After making changes to customize kdm behavior (such as changing wallpaper)
and restarting the X server, kdm flashes the new wallpaper on the screen,
then immediately reverts to the default RedHat logo background.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

2.Upgrade KDE to 2.2.2

4.Restart X server
	

Actual Results:  kdm reverts to default background.

Expected Results:  kdm should follow the settings in the kdmrc and use the
background listed.

Examine: /etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0
Comment 2 Mike Wallis 2002-01-14 23:24:38 UTC 
Yes, by modifying /etc/X11/Xsetup_0, I'm able to force the background to
whatever I want, however that's not exactly the issue. Upgrading kdebase
shouldn't break the prior functionality. It's a bug, albeit a minor one.
