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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379471 Title: Cannot change desktop background in Xfce To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfdesktop/+bug/1379471/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

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. below is the topic where I worked out this issue.. https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=33586 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379471 Title: Cannot change desktop background in Xfce To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfdesktop/+bug/1379471/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1379471 Title: Cannot change desktop background in Xfce To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfdesktop/+bug/1379471/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
