General :: Image Bigger Than Display - Wallpaper Change
Aug 31, 2011
I am looking for a tool that can resize images and display them on the root window of an X11 display at a specific coordinates. I can use display from iagemagick like so display -window root -geometry '-0-0' -resize '1920x1080>' IMG.png But cannot use it since it does not display on the right root window -- pseudo transparency in urxvt shows the wrong image as shown here. Ideally, I would like to resize any image bigger than my display. Does anyone know of a too that can do the following: Resize the image if it is bigger than some size (aka the display size). Set the images top appear at specific screen coordinates.

I have a script that will change my desktop image to display all of my network IP address. I need to call this script whenever a change in the network occurs. Example, if I disconnect from one network and then connect to another network and get a new IP address.

I am slowly working my way through the OS. I am trying to change the background wallpaper. The images are all present but when I effect the alteration, the new background appears for a couple of seconds then vanishes with a message to the effect that the pathway to the folders/files does not exist.

I am trying to upload some pics on my Facebook account using Firefox. When I click on Facebook's file upload icon, Firefox bring up a 'File Upload' window. I noticed that smaller image file is previewed on the lower right hand corner, while bigger image file is not. Is there anyway I can change this behavior or maybe change what Firefox is using to browse my files?

I have spent the most part of 5 hours trying to fix this issue. For some reason I cannot change the background image to any of mt .jpg wallpaper files (and .png files). I've tried using the Ubuntu-Tweak application, but I end up getting a purple screen (default) or a black screen (default). So then I tried using the terminal method by making the Appearance window appear when I would log out. That works, except when I go to use my background image, it shows as a question mark for the image preview, and the icon for the file is a gray box. All while doing this my background images that I tested are all in the /usr/share/backgrounds location. Please help! I really want to get rid of the default images and use my images... :/ My desktop/screen in 1440x900, and most my background images are around that size. They work with my regular desktop for my account.

I have put a local marine chart as my wallpaper image (ubuntu 10.10). It's a high res tif image and looks good.
However, occasionally I'd like to zoom in on a particular point. Is there any way of doing this? (I'm not using compiz - as I don't need that level of eye candy).
I know I can open the image manually and zoom - but wondered if there was a way to do it on the wallpaper.

Where can I find the wallpaper that is similar to the image in the Debian home page. Not the one in the smaller windows (in the image), but the part of the image which has "The universal operating system" written.

I'm running 10.04 with compiz under gnome, and I'm having trouble getting my screenshots to capture properly. Currently they only display my wallpaper and not any windows or panels. I tried using the module in the custom settings manager but no key-binds seem to work, well either that or the plugin is failing to load when I initialise it.

I have just exported 3 png files out of gimp for a html document I'm working on right now, and they are all almost the same, except I need each to load when the user does something. So the first image will display on the page, and when a user puts their cursor over it, then it will load image 2. When they press it, it loads image 3.

I'm running Xfce 4.6.1 and xfdesktop 4.6.1.1 (or so aptitude said). When I use 'None' image option - just colour - I get the colour I ask for but if I change that to either 'Single image' or 'Image list' then both the image and the background colour are made greyscale.
I have tried looking through all the options I could find to do with Xfce and searching Google but I don't know how to phrase it as my searches tend to bring up black and white wallpapers.
Running X as a different user on the same computer does not cause the same problem which makes me think it might be cause by a user setting though I spent a long time with a black and white wallpaper and do not know when the issue first arose.

which will show a png from GIMP on the screen in fullscreen mode. I was using GIMP and there is an option to save my image as an .h or .c file. I tried .h and it saves it as some kind of very large variable. I want to call this from my own C program and display it on the screen.

I am a windows user and am trying to display a jpg image file on linux every x hours.In Windows, if I were to perform the same task, I would just give out the path to schtasks.exe and it would open the image in the default viewer,is the case same with linux as well? Do I just execute:
crontab now + 1 hour abc.jpg ? The linux is OpenSuse or Debian I guess.

'I am attempting to grab roughly 40 pieces of data that is a combination of 0 and 1 flags from mysql. based off of the 0 or 1... either pictA or pictB will be displayed. How to evaluate my code? I believe the logic is incorrect.

I'm using this command: wget --convert-links -np --wait=20 --limit-rate=20K -m -k -p -U Mozilla -c [URL]
I can only use konqueror (asus eeepc 701) to completely view kneetest.html . The image taimoshan-front-qtr.jpg does not show, but if I right click and save, I can view the jpg. I was able to see this jpg earlier in the day, but not now. I've wget'd the site about 5 or 6 times in a day and sometimes I'll miss 2 images. I've also tried without the -U Mozilla option. BTW: Is there a way to get Mozilla to read files from wget?

I need to show a static image with the logo of our department while Debian boots. Is there any easy way or tool to do this? (Any parameter of the kernel maybe?) It doesn't have to be anything fancy (like a progress bar)... just a plain an simple image.
I've seen many bootsplash projects..but most of them are broken. I tried splashy (which is available on the repo), but by the time it loads, my system is already booted, so I don't really like it. note that I don't have any Xorg server installed.

I have been using 10.2 for the longest time. Just did fresh install of 11.3. I can't figure out how to change just the wallpaper. I found out how to change themes, but not just the wallpaper.

I have just installed opensuse 11.2 and am using the gnome desktop environment. I just can't get it to change wallpapers. I select a wallpaper in the list, and nothing happens. I download a wallpaper and add it to the backgrounds. select it. nothing happens. I don't particularly like the default wallpaper and I hate to abandon the whole OS just because of this, but it's irritating.

So, I had a system failure earlier today. I decide to reinstall xubuntu 9.10 on my computer. Everything goes fine and then when I start getting things set the way I want them, I find that for some odd reason, I can not change my wallpaper in xfce4. Added to that, when I click the right mouse button, nothing happens(yes I have it checked to open the application menu) and when I click in the left mouse button and drag(usually a frame appears), nothing happens.
