I see that Jhon has also posted on the gnome-list group and he posted that the following command line should work: gconftool-2 -t str --set /desktop/gnome/background/ \ picture_filename "http://somesite.com/wallpaper1.png" So I guess, once we update the file, we should just run the following command again and it should change it. I am currently toying around with doing this in Java, if I have a WebStart app running, I shall host it for you guys to try.
