Reopening this is different from bug 1295.

Looks like the cause of this bug, is that the OP doesn't have have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf, so the commands run by the switch-theme script can't guess/detect his resolution and so the symlink never gets created/updated.

Modifying summary to reflect the current state.

Summary: Mageia background is missing 1024x768 wallpaper => Xconfig/resolution_and_depth.pm fails to guess/detect the resolution if /etc/X11/xorg.conf isn't available
