    Re: Better Wallpaper Switcher

    Anybody have a mirror or something for the py file? I seem to get a 404 on it.

    Thanks in advance.
    There's no real need. If you go into the settings manager -> desktop you'll see you can create lists of wallpapers for XFCE to switch between.

    Once a file as has been set up, adding the command "DISPLAY=:0.0 /usr/bin/xfdesktop --reload" to your crontab as often as you want the wallpaper to change will do the trick. So, for example, the line:

    Code:
    */20 * * * * DISPLAY=:0.0 /usr/bin/xfdesktop --reload >/dev/null 2>&1
    will select a wallpaper at random from your list every 20 minutes.
