So, this doesn't make sense...

I've been very happy with Ubuntu for a few months now and last night I decided to change my wallpaper...

Right click -> Change Desktop Background.

I click on another wallpaper in the viewer and nothing. I cannot click any wallpapers, however, when I "Add" the wallpaper I want to the list that it's already on, It becomes the wallpaper.

I realize this isn't a terrible problem but I've been known to crash Windoze often and I'm hoping this isn't the start of me crashing Ubuntu.

I have the same problem but was able to use the arrow keys on my keyboard to select different different images. Left click on any image and the keyboard arrow keys work....
As you said this isn't a big problem but I'm finding it hard to believe it was overlooked...

Hope this helps....

This wasn't overlooked. It was a regression from a recent update. A fix is on the way. You can follow this bug's activity here

Thanks FuturePilot I hadn't seen that bug report...
Should have know it was in route to correction. Few things have escaped notice and obviously this is one.
Thanks Again....

No problem :)
I was actually surprised to find this bug myself because I noticed gnome-appearance-properties was not working correctly and it was eating my CPU. But I know it wasn't doing this a few days ago.

It makes me happy when the problems that occur in / on Ubuntu aren't my fault by tinkering with things.

The keyboard works wonders, thanks for the hint.
