I'm trying to convert from Gnome (1.4) to KDE (3.7). In Gnome, I have a perl script that is started up with the equivelant of autorun. It then selects a random iamge from a directory of images, and uses xv to set the root X window to that image. Works like a charm. I've tried several things to try to get KDE to emualte this behavior, but I cna't seem to figure out how to get it to just leave the background untouched. Is this possible? If not, I'll follow up with another question about how to change the behavior of the closest thing I've foundin KDE.
