You should not change the page of a slide, but create a master page for 
each of the different backgrounds.

Give each master page a name.

Apply the master page immediately to a slide.

In which format do you save? ppt is not able to held different page 
backgrounds but for the title page.

Use master pages and save in odp-format. I have no trouble using 
different backgrounds. I work with LO3.3.2 (and a lot of OOo) on WinXP.
