applied changes through desktop context menu. Using control center (afterwards) recognises the changed settings (in preview window), but doesn't reflect a change either *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 12620 *** For what it's worth, and for anyone still using KDE 3 & stumbling on the same problem: - I think this was wrongly marked as a duplicate. (Bug 12620 has AFAICT nothing to do with wallpapers.) - I have been experiencing this same bug with KDE 3.5.5, exactly as described by the original submitter, and have diagnosed a probable mechanism causing this. Lubos Lunak: Can you unmark this as a duplicate, and (possibly) "un-resolve" this, if it's not too much trouble? I know KDE 3 is old hat now that KDE 4 is out, but this bug might never actually have been resolved. (I will try to remember to report back when I get a chance to test if this still happens with KDE 3.5.9.) * The apparent cause: - When changing the wallpaper, ~/.kde/share/config/kdesktoprc is updated for e.g. the section [Desktop1], but for some reason there is also a section [Desktop1Screen0], which is NOT updated. This section is the one that actually defines what gets used, and only manually editing the file brings out the required changes. I am currently using an xorg.conf with only 1 screen set up, but I was testing a dual-screen setup earlier, and suspect that this bug may have appeared after this. Bug closed. Kdesktop is no more mantained. |
