Just to verify. backup your old xfce4-desktop.xml. replace with the
following and edit "FULL PATH TO YOUR WALLPAPER" to well.. the full path
to the wallpaper you want to use.  tells it to span all monitors. Restart XFCE and
you should be met with your new wallpaper, it might change immediately I
can't remember. You'll notice I got the "GPU-0.DP-0" from your xorg.conf
and is your left most monitor.

That is the problem, there should be ;) I'm running basically the EXACT
xorg.conf you are.

can you not recompile xconf with the patch from my bug report? If you
know what you are doing it should take a few minutes.

[Bug 1379471]

2014-10-25 Thread Joshua Palmer
I would almost guarantee it is the same issue. I had the same exact
behavior that you descibed. There has not been a new release of xfconf
so unless canonical(ubuntu) cherry picked the commit to xfconf that
fixes it, it will still be broken and my bets are that they didn't. Your
only option is to recompile xfconf yourself either from git or from
ubuntu's sources and apply the patch yourself from my bug eric linked
before. You could possibly make a bug report with ubuntu and link them
to the patch and hope they pick it and update the package.
