Using KDE, when switching between virtual desktops the background wallpaper is

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Assign different wallpapers to different virtual desktops.
2. Switch between virtual desktops, the background will not change.
3. Switch to another virtual terminal and back to reveal the correct background.

You have to disable "common Background" in this menu. after that it should work

Comment 2 Ian Pilcher 2002-10-07 17:28:51 UTC
I had to disable "common background" before I could even set different backgrounds
for different virtual desktops.  Please note the fact that I can cause the correct
background to display by switching to a different virtual terminal and back,
forcing the background to be redrawn.

Comment 3 Ian Pilcher 2002-10-07 20:38:58 UTC
This bug only appears when "Enable Icons on Desktop" is unselected in the KDE
Control Center.

Comment 4 Ngo Than 2002-10-08 20:15:10 UTC
strange, it works for me even i have unselected "enable Icons on Desktop" and
"Common background". I really cannot reproduce it on many local machine here.

Sorry, i close it as wontfix again
