Hey guys.

I would like to write a very small script, when executed, will open up a selected image, full screen, and then launch Xmms to run on top of this.

Could I get some help just on how to load up a full screen image by command line?

Cheers.

"xdg-open /path/to/image" does the job on n900/n9 not sure if it works the same way on the n800.

xdg-open /media/mmc1/desktop.png
-bash: xdg-open: command not found

It's not in /usr/bin/

Could xdg-open be somewhere else?

Install Diablo's xdg-utils. It should include xdg-open, according to the description.
Best wishes.

Thank you Wikiwide.

So I gave it a try.....

xdg-open /media/mmc1/desktop.png
/usr/bin/xdg-open: line 412: xprop: not found
/usr/bin/xdg-open: line 438: sensible-browser: not found

It wouldn't install from the app manager but dpkg -i gave no complaints.

On that Maemo site, I didn't notice any dependencies for this so I'm not sure what might be wrong.

Hmmm....

Nothing was found for "sensible-browser" in the database.

And xprop (v. 1:1.0.2-0ubuntu1) was only found in http://austinche.name/maemo for Bora.
