Background Picture
by Bobby on Wednesday 31/Oct/2007, @08:33

First I would like to say a big thank you to all the developers who are so industrious and creative in this wonderful project.
KDE4 Beta 4 is a very big improvement over the last release. it's much faster and seems to be more stable. I am even getting the desktop effects but there is no desktop background. Beta 3 had a wonderful flower but it's now gone and I don't even know how to add a background picture. Anyone has an idea?
Thanks in advance.

> no desktop backgroun

either a setting your plasmarc, a bug in your packages/installation or DesktopContainment isn't working.

> know how to add a background picture

the configuration dialog for this is still pending.

I'm missing a desktop background too (with opensuse packages from yesterday) (although the svn build from today seems to be ok).

I wonder where the desktop plasmoid has gone. Is it going to get replaced so that you >must< have a desktop or will it be a plasmoid in the future (as before)

I updated the packages a few hours ago but all I have is the same black background. Just out of curiosity though, what's the background for beta4? The beta3 background was breathtaking.
This realease has improved a lot over the one before. Great job and thanks for your dedication and hard work.
