Change the desktop wallpaper

Hey,

Well, depends on what environment you log into. If you
use gnome, gconf-editor stores it as

/desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename

gconftool will help you further on that road.

feh keeps a record of it latest invocation as well,
though, if you prefer the simple approach. Can't
remember what name it gives the file, that's why I
referred to the man page. ;)

Cheers,
Tom
