Re: Setting wallpaper

I just bonk this in my .fluxbox/startup file after dropping all my
fave wallpapers in .fluxbox/backgrounds - I get a new background every
10m


( while true; do fbsetbg -r ~/.fluxbox/backgrounds; sleep 600; done) &


Or there are programs for this - I once used nitrogen

Cheers


Bob
