hi, i have made a script which calls xplanet to make an image on a dir on /tmp, then make cat /tmp/something, and then deletes it, this script is called from advanced tab every 15 min., but there are 2 problems here:
1. There is any "Render now" button, to test configuration changes, that is very annoying.
2. When ROX-Session starts, it takes, maybe 3 to 5 seconds to draw the desktop, due to the script. I think, that it should:
a. load the last background from the configured script
b. then run another process that calls and wait for the script to end (like if it haves to downloads an image from inet),
c. when the image is ready replace the last desktop image
d. and the process should call rox to update the background
Advanced program is not very well done i guess
