Bug Description

Hi,
I'm running Xubuntu 12.04 and i just install gtk-sunlight.

It doesn't work.
I mean, it run:

gtk-sunlight
killall: killall.c :386 : kill_all: L'assertion « process_age_sec > 0 » a échoué.
Aborted (core dumped)
Aucune valeur définie pour « /desktop/gnome/background/primary_color »
Aucune valeur définie pour « /desktop/gnome/background/secondary_color »

but it doesn't change the wallpaper.

I read here (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=118142) that it's because gtk-sunlight call gnome envirenoment to change wallpaper.

So maybe there is a way to detect desktop environment and adapt...

Caus it's too bad this great soft only work on gnome.

Thanks for considering.

At the momennt RSW uses dconf to change the wallpaper which is the gnome tool the change the wallpaper through the command line.

I've thought including other tools for other distros like fluxbox, xfce, ... but this haven't been implemented yet
