Fluxbox Random Background problem

Sonikku · 08-15-2006, 01:15 AM

When I use fbsetbg -r (dir) it does set a random background but it's not streched fullscreen, theres black borders around it. When I load any pic nornmally with just fbsetbg (pic) it streches fine. Is there a way to stretch to my screen and randomly select the pic? thx.

Hi!

This is how I do it:

1. You first need 'shuffle': http://wiw.org/~drz/software.html

2. This is the root command I use to set a random background:

Code:

rootCommand:    fbsetbg /home/max/wallpapers/slackware/`ls /home/max/wallpapers/slackware | shuffle | head -n 1`
