Hi Growlf,

I hat strictly followed your installation-instructions for your nice little app.

But the thing is: this does not work in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.

My system is a 64bit Ubuntu 10.04 with kernel 2.6.32-16-generic.

After having strictly followed your installation-instruction (which went so far successfull), i wanted to use this little app for changing the background-Wallpaper. For this reason, I had copied several new Wallpapers from a personal folder inside my home-folder to /usr/share/backgrounds.

After having done this, I opened your nice little app from the menu and wanted to change the Wallpaper. I was able to select this new picture from the list. Then I pressed the button "OK" bit nothing happened. the Wallpaper stayed the same as before.

I found out, that only this terminal-command affects this change: sudo -u gdm dbus-launch gnome-appearance-properties.

why does it not work with this GDM2Setup??

Is this a bug with Lucid or what is going wrong??
