webilder going bonkers
Posted: Sat Jul 21, 2012 1:55 pm
Lxde has most things needed!
But missing 2 deal breakers: #1. Gui autostart editor. Finally, found the editable file after 4 hours of googling and posting. What are you all thinking? So, not a deal breaker anymore, just a head scratcher. #2. All windows guis need (apart from: start button with programs/admin, min/max window buttons, taskbar/tray) an auto wall paper swither that will download a flickrwall photo, and auto rotate every 5 to 15 minutes. This is a deal breaker, not only does it make slaving on a computer nicer for me (less like a closeted slave, that I am, at times.), but I have found repeatedly that with most non administrators this is the most appreciated feature on a computer worth paying for (as seen in webshots).
Alas!!! Webilder is going bonkers rotating wallpaper every 1 seconds with the following script to rotate the wallpaper. Help!
#!/bin/bash
DIR=/home/dennis/.webilder/Collection/Nature
FLOOR=1
RANGE=`ls -1 "$DIR"/*.jpg | wc | awk '// {print $1}'`
number=0
while [ 1 -eq 1 ]; do
number=$RANDOM
while [ "$number" -le $FLOOR ]; do
number=$RANDOM
done
let "number %= $RANGE" # Scales $number down within $RANGE.
COUNTER=1
for X in "$DIR"/*.jpg
do
if [ $number -eq $COUNTER ]; then
pcmanfm --set-wallpaper "$X"
fi
COUNTER=$(($COUNTER+1))
done
COUNTER=1
sleep 5m
done
