[07:41] Lunz: What are you trying to do? [07:41] Lunz: You can write a python script that updates the gconf setting every now and then [07:41] i want to use a wallpaper [07:41] Lunz: And you can have an animated wall. [07:41] but i want my wallpaper animate.. [07:42] Oh man [07:42] Read what I just typed. [07:42] using glmatrix as my wallpaper..is that possible? [07:42] That is a different thing [07:42] setting a screensaver as your root window will cause a few issues [07:42] for one, all of your desktop icons will not be there any more [07:42] as you must tell nautilus to relinquish control of the root window [07:42] (being the desktop) [07:42] then you simply tell the screensaver to display on the root window [07:43] so in summary 1) set your gconf setting so that nautilus won't draw to the root window [07:43] 2) tell your glscreensaver to display on the root window (handle 0) [07:43] very simple [07:43] google if you need more help [07:43] wow..i dont understand what are you talking about...i am newbie lol [07:44] have you came across with xwinwrap [07:44] Lunz: Effectively 'nautilus' is your browser and file manager for the system -- it grabs hold of the root window so that you get automount icons and shortcuts on it. [07:44] Lunz: To display a screensaver in the root window (the desktop you are staring at) you will need to DISABLE nautilus from grabbing it -- that is a gconf setting. [07:45] Lunz: Then you tell your glscreensaver to write on it. [07:45] Lunz: http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Screensaver_in_Background [07:46] thanks [07:46] http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/09/14/animated-wallpaper-with-compiz-fusion-on-ubuntu/ [07:46] does this work?

[12:51] yes there is that [12:51] but i mean wallpapers are very simple to install yourself [12:53] sure, but i think the most people use the wallpaper inside of the package === andreasn [n=andreas@90-227-183-136-no128.tbcn.telia.com] has joined #ubuntu-artwork [12:56] the best example is vista, many people love the collection of the wallpaper inside [12:56] maybe the best feature in windows vista :D [12:56] more default, lol, i don't know that any more will fit [12:56] ubuntu keeps getting larger and larger [12:57] lassegul: what did you ping me about before [12:57] nothlit: hi. do you know if there have been any discussions about moving to dvd at some point? [12:57] nothlit: hmm.. [12:57] nothlit: thats a very long time ago, isnt it? [12:58] there is a dvd already [12:58] but isos are more accessible to burn or use on legacy systems [12:58] cd isos* [12:59] lassegul: yes it was two days ago [12:59] nothlit: i dont remember anymore... [12:59] hmm but ubuntu is one of the last distros who didn't use dvd isos as default [12:59] i think cd isos should be the option, not the default one [01:01] sooner or later is it impossible to avoid the dvd iso image [01:02] when i look at me, i didn't buy cd-rs anymore, only dvd-rw [01:03] you're still a tech geek [01:03] hopefully there will be no need to do anything but a seamless upgrade soon ;) [01:03] (i know i'm not the middle of the earth* [01:05] i wonder what the chances of getting an area on the official site [01:05] for additional official wallpapers + usplash options etc etc [01:07] i think there should be one "big" default wallpaper, for official screenshots etc. [01:09] hellraiser_rob: if you see the mailing list archives for this month, you will find discussions about art.ubuntu.com [01:10] lassegul: what was the outcome, greenlighted/ [01:12] hellraiser_rob: http://ubuntu-art.org/ [01:13] for less official, the wiki will hold less random works [01:13] and i'm guessing most of it will go into the community package [01:13] or someone will finally use the artwork builder [01:13] and submit it themselves [01:14] nothlit: thanks for the link [01:15] nothlit: great work with the wiki. its nearly finished now, until we have more to put up. [01:17] nothlit: but still if you are clicking next to browse all the incoming alternate you will get to platypus and from there press next and go to /Incoming. You know how to solve that?
