    Hi All,

    I posted this to the regular Xfce group, but no joy.

    I just installed a new workstation with
    Fedora-Live-Xfce-x86_64-23-10.iso.  It comes with Xfce 4.12

    Problem with Desktop Settings:  It is suppose to look like:
    http://jsmylinux.no-ip.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/WorkSpace-Wallpaper-01.png

    But what I get is a blank "wallpaper for ...".  When I
    go to select the folder, after exiting and restarting
    settings, it goes back to "none".  The wallpaper
    area always stays empty.

    I also installed Fedora-Live-Xfce-x86_64-23-10.iso to
    a virtual machine and was able to duplicate the issue
    with the exception that the virtual machine won't move
    off of "images" and does show three blue wallpapers.

    $ ps ax | grep -i xfdesktop
    2429 ? Sl 0:01 xfdesktop --display :0.0 --sm-client-id
    29b1e4965-d809-48ff-92e2-dc5e898ee44c

    How do I fix this?

    And is this a "bug" in the Live ISO?

    Many thanks,
    -T

Hey have you managed to solve your issue already?

If not try unchecking the box that says "Change the background" and
checking the box "Apply to all workspaces"

Hope that helps,
Roman

Hi Roman,

On my VM, "Change the background" woke and unwoke my ability
to change the background directory.

On the machine in question, no joy.

I think there is some corruption or something.

Do y9 know how to set this manually (vi)?
