LXDE Forums

Just install Linux Mint 9 LXDE and am really impressed with it's speed. Anyway, I guess I changed something in the right click on the desktop, because I don't see anything to change the wallpaper. Just shows "Terminal Emulator/Web Browser/ObConf..... How would I fix this? Thanks.

I'm running on my Fedora 13 system right now, so this may not be correct for Linux Mint, but for me
MainMenu->Preferences->Desktop opens the Desktop Preferences dialog which lets me change the wallpaper.

simple. open the pcmanfm form Edit--> preferences --select desktop tap and from there you can set the wallpaper

Same problem. Linux Mint doesn't have that option on pcmanfm. What can we do? Please help!

pcmanfm -–desktop-pref

or

use these options
-w, –-set-wallpaper= Set desktop wallpaper
-–wallpaper-mode= Set mode of desktop wallpaper. =(color|stretch|fit|center|tile)
