I have a pictures directory and a cron script that changes my wallpaper every hour. For this, I need a way to change the wallpaper via commandline. On my F14 (Gnome 2), I used to just use gconf2 for the purpose $ /usr/bin/gdconftool-2 -t string -s /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename "$PIC" where $PIC = path to the wallpaper However, this doesn't work on my Gnome-3 F15 install. A quick look at the gnome-control-center/panels/background code suggests that gnome-control-center doesn't do any gconf stuff to change the wallpaper either. What is the "latest and the greatest" way to change the wallpaper via commandline? Did the gconf property migrate to some other directory? Some useful info: I am running F15. $ rpm -q control-center control-center-3.0.1.1-6.fc15.i686 Jitesh -- Run away from difficulties to stand to fight them tomorrow. http://aterriblewasteoflife.blogspot.com http://nothingtechnicalaboutit.blogspot.com -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
