Hi, i'm Xfce user, i will like to configure wallpapers to change every 3-4 seconds ... but it looks impossible since the application here doesn't allow me to adjust time to less than 1 mnt,

How can i get a more updated application?

Try an application called 'variety' - it's in our repos.

Hi,

Well, i installed this application but nothing happen, didn't see any difference ...

And this is my sources.list, just in case:

[spoiler]# deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
# deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free
# deb-src http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free
# deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org testing main non-free

## Other repos can be found in /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory ##


deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main
# deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ jessie main

Of course not.
Run the application from Menu and set wallpapers and other things.

I did not like, it looks like some commercial 'something else' ... more for a Windows user than for Linux ... And now I have a second problem, i uninstalled completely this application from synaptic and it left me some images on my screen/background only God knows for what purpose.

I was looking for some update from the application that it is already installed in the system, and now ...

1. Change a desktop's wallpaper to yours.
2. Delete directory:
~HOME/.config/variety
