$ file /usr/share/pixmaps/splash/ubuntu-splash.png
/usr/share/pixmaps/splash/ubuntu-splash.png: symbolic link to `ubuntu-slick.png'
I've actually just reinstalled from scratch (a herd 2 cd image.) I'm not
sure the situation is exactly as it was, but it still isn't right.
It seems that the only way to make the problem happen is specifically
using the gconf-editor. If I use that to set the key to, for example,
"error", then:
$ gconftool -g /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image
error
$ gconftool -u /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image
$ gconftool -g /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image
splash/ubuntu-splash.png
And everything works correctly. If I then open gconf-editor, navigate
to the key, and select "unset" from the context menu, the screen will
then show "splash/gnome-splash.png". However:
$ gconftool -g /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image
splash/ubuntu-splash.png
Starting gconf-editor again, the key is now shown as "splash/ubuntu-
splash.png" again, so it looks like the context menu option doesn't
actually set the key wrong, it just displays the wrong text.
I guess this is actually just a gconf-editor bug?
