I have Tahrpup 6

I have downloaded RWC-1.7.3 and it changes the wallpaper just as I expect.

However when the screensaver timesout I still get the black screen. I thought RWC would kick in at that point.

Maybe I have misunderstood what it is supposed to do.

Hey Robin

RWC has nothing to do with screensaver/DPMS - it does control only desktop background.
Screen blanking is managed via Menu -> Desktop -> PupX -> Screensaver.

Btw, if you're intrested in a fullscreen random slideshow, which gets triggered after certain time of user's inactivity, check out SlideSaver.tar.gz on the previous page.
But in this case you also need to disable screen blanking on your own.

Greetings!

Thanks. I'll have a look at that.

I had got the impression that RWC was a more recent version of SlideSaver - probably because I came on things in the wrong order - via Google.

I tried to make this app as "foolproof" as possible, and hope it will work well for others too.

Works in latest Lupu + briefly tested in Slacko and Wary.

UPDATE 2012-05-06: v1.1 - few bugfixes
UPDATE 2012-05-06: v1.2 - better handling of special characters in filenames

Hi people and SFR.
I'm novice in Linux. All I managed to do is to install the .pet of the RWC.
But... how can I execute it? Did not find the file...
Could you help me please?

There should be a menu entry in menu Desktop.

In terminal just type: rwc-config
