What did you do?
I always had a picture on my old computer. When I got the new one I
copied my entire "home" to the new account and it started "occasionally"
working.
I can't remember now = but I have a recollection that I then reset it in
System/Preferences but I am not sure now - the only place I can see to
do that is "About Me"
I mean, how does your "/etc/gdm3/greeter.gconf-defaults" look like?
Nothing specific here

GDM does occasionally decide to show it, but more often or not it
doesn't and I am represented by what looks like a white chess pawn.
Any ideas what is going on here.
Radmon fails in this specific matter looks to me like it could be a small
bug... is there anything useful in your "~/.xsession-errors" file?
Isn't it a bit late by this time. ~/.xsession-errors implies I have
already logged in as me = whereas I am talking about before anyone logs in.
Not that there was anything useful in it anyway that I could see.
