9.04 on laptop - wallpapers

[windowsfree]

I saw on version 9.10 that there is a rotating wallpaper selection. Can I do that with 9.04?
If so how?

Thanks

You could install wallpaper-tray from the repositories, it may do enough for your purposes.

I ended up writing a script to do what I needed, using gconftool to set the new wallpaper on each change. FYI the gconftool usage looks like this:

gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename someimagefile.jpgwhere you should of course replace someimagefile.jpg with the path and name of the actual image you want as the current wallpaper.

Thank you! I will try it and also try your script with the appropriate changes.

Where will I find it after installing it? I tried running it from the command line, but no luck.
