i wish i had said these things before u rewrote the app. but i do think...u'd like the ifl one better.

Good job though...the new RWC looks really nice.

for i in {1..100}; do mkdir "test-$i"; cd "test-$i"; done; cp /usr/share/backgrounds/* .

}

Would it be possible (if you're even interested) to make this app use feh to set the wallpaper?

I _think_ I found the actual bug, it was /usr/bin/rwc-config:

Code: Select all

exec /usr/local/RWC/rwc-config &

I've no idea why did I put & there, but for 90% it was the cause; most likely /usr/bin/rwc-config process was dying too slow. Interesting that it wasn't happend in Slacko..?
But thanks again, it was definitely RWC bug.
I hope it'll be ok now.
