Hi, this is driving me crazy. With the new Compiz that comes with Ubuntu 9.04 where is the setting that allows me to set different wallpapers for the cube?

Thanks!

Question: do you even know if such a setting exists?

Version 8.04 has such a setting, but I can't find it in 9.04

I thought there was an extension called Wallpaper that had that feature.

I just looked and didn't see it.

There is an extension called Wallpaper but activating it and setting wallpapers has no effect.

You have to disable Nautilius' "Show Desktop" option via the config editor. ;)

Okay, tried that. It works in 8.04 but not in 9.04. Disabling show desktop has no effect on anything. Weird...

It works. I'm using Jaunty with a 5 sided prism with different pics + skybox. First, use compizconfig, go to the "Wallpaper" option, and add a buncha files. Then disable Nautilius' show desktop.

Search for it a bit more, I've seen this answered a million times.
