Perhaps I'll start with a small preface. This is my first post, so do not scold too much and do not kick with your feet (at least in the kidneys). This post I want to start a new series of articles in the blog Ubuntarium , but so far I have not yet reached him. I hope to write one article per week, revealing certain possibilities of ubuntu . All comments and suggestions you can send xxxYURAxxx to me in any way accessible from the profile.

Wallpapoz installation

Yes, yes, all this will be done not by a self-made script on the bash, but by the wallpapoz program.

To do this, we need to install the python-imaging package. For those who do not know, this is done like this:

sudo apt-get install python-imaging .

Next, download the latest version . For those who do not know, this is done like this:

wget wallpapoz.akbarhome.com/files/wallpapoz-0.4.1.tar.bz2 .

Unpack the archive in the wallpapoz-0.4.1 folder. We do it like this:

tar -jxvf wallpapoz-0.4.1.tar.bz2 .

And we go into it:

cd wallpapoz-0.4.1 .

But actually the installation:

sudo python setup.py install .

You can congratulate us, half done.

Mood

Let's launch the program itself with the magic of hotkeys: Alt + F2. Enter the name wallpapoz . And look what came out of it.

This is the main program window:



There is nothing difficult in it. On each of our desktops add different wallpapers.

Click Preferences and see the following window:



We set the time for changing the wallpaper, in a random order (for those who wish).

Autostart

You can see the result right now, just click on Restart .

But after all, we also want to watch the automatic wallpaper change after the reboot.

Go to the menu System -> Settings -> Sessions and add a new item:



Team: daemon_wallpapoz

That's all.
