Bug#1114455: xfdesktop unable to change wallpaper or background



hmm, later I found out it's associated with a failed to install nvidia-dkms. 

by mistake, I forgot to install linux-header-6.16, but have linux-header-6.12. so the nvidia-dkms installed to 6.16 but not 6.12.

In 6.12 with nvidia-dkms, everything works fine.
in 6.16 without nvidia-dkms, the issue happens.

finally I installed linux-header-6.16 and reinstall nvidia driver, solved the problem.

Hi, thanks for the report, but I can't really reproduce. It seems to have
issues with showing svg images from the relevant folder but I have no issue
changing the style to None, for example.

Unfortunately there's not much I can do from here, you'll have to investigate
a bit more on your side.
