Just to verify. backup your old xfce4-desktop.xml. replace with the following and edit "FULL PATH TO YOUR WALLPAPER" to well.. the full path to the wallpaper you want to use. <property name="image-style" type="int" value="6"/> tells it to span all monitors. Restart XFCE and you should be met with your new wallpaper, it might change immediately I can't remember. You'll notice I got the "GPU-0.DP-0" from your xorg.conf and is your left most monitor. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <channel name="xfce4-desktop" version="1.0"> <property name="backdrop" type="empty"> <property name="single-workspace-mode" type="bool" value=""/> <property name="single-workspace-number" type="int" value="0"/> <property name="screen0" type="empty"> <property name="monitorGPU-0.DP-0" type="empty"> <property name="workspace0" type="empty"> <property name="last-image" type="string" value="FULL PATH TO YOUR WALLPAPER"/> <property name="image-style" type="int" value="6"/> </property> </property> </property> </property> <property name="last" type="empty"> <property name="window-width" type="int" value="605"/> <property name="window-height" type="int" value="501"/> </property> <property name="desktop-icons" type="empty"> <property name="file-icons" type="empty"> <property name="show-home" type="bool" value="false"/> <property name="show-filesystem" type="bool" value="false"/> <property name="show-trash" type="bool" value="false"/> <property name="show-removable" type="bool" value="false"/> </property> </property> </channel> -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379471 Title: Cannot change desktop background in Xfce To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfdesktop/+bug/1379471/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
