I can't seem to get wallpaper to rotate using the internal changer you guys have built into antix... All it does when I select random wallpaper timed is every 5 minutes it changes the background of Conky and not my wallpaper....

EDIT: Ok I tried synaptic package manager and installed cortina then desktopnova neither of which worked...
Then I set antix changer to random wallpaper rather then random timed, which I assume changes the wallpaper at bootup randomly rather then every 5 minutes.... again nothing happened i booted about 5 times to the same wallpaper....
My only guess here is that the LXDE desktop manager I run installed its own desktop wallpaper tool, which is what i used to set my wallpaper originally, and since that wallpaper keeps coming up, I am pretty sure that I will not see antix wallpaper tool changing my desktop wallpaper until I somehow am able to disable the LXDE tool.... what do you guys think???


EDIT: I found a nice script that rotates it on boot up, and you can add it to the panel also, and click it to manually change....

The antiX wallpaper changer is only for the desktops that come with antiX ie jwm, fluxbox and icewm. You will need to use a 'native' one for lxde.
