Severity: normal


Hello,

sometime in January xdm stopped displaying a background picture (and
boy, that gray grid pattern is ugly..).  It seems that support for
/etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup was dropped silently.  This contradicts the
documentation since xdm.1 still says that background images should be
set using Xsetup.

Please restore the original behavior, fix the man page or at least
document a workaround somewhere.

Regards

Diego
