    matans modified-hildon-desktop caused my media player play button to stop working.
    i had to go back to 4 desktops to get it to work again
    (by reinstalling the original hildon-desktop)

    Yes, I know, I think it's a known issue...

    @Matan:
    It seems I have some issues here as well ...
    Code:
    http://my.arava.co.il/~matan/repo/binary/modified-hildon-desktop_2.1_armel.deb
    http://my.arava.co.il/~matan/770/n900/hildon-home_0.3.66-2+0m5_armel.deb
    installed and background configured for all 9 desktops

    I'm using QBW desktop switcher to issue relevant
    Code:
    conftool-2 -s /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/views/current -t int <new desktop>
    Desktop gets switched and:

    Issue 1) At times the target desktop doesn't respond any more to finger swipe (you need to use standby switch on right side of phone to blank screen and then use it again to switch screen on in order for swipe to start working again)

    Issue 2) Every time I switch desktop, the target desktop doesn't seem to receive the "notify::is-on-current-desktop" signal any more and widgets supposed to receive that signal and handle it do not process desktop switch condition any more

    Any idea?

    a bit confused about this.... i already installed the modified desktop but i cant make the wallpaper to display on the additional desktop.

    for what i understand i have to install the hildon home also to put a wallpaper to the extra desktops... but according to the page i downloaded the desktop home, its only for PR 1.2

    I'm using:
    http://my.arava.co.il/~matan/770/n90...+0m5_armel.deb
    and apart from issue 1) and 2) above I have no problem

    Issue 2) should already have a solution but I haven't installed patched HD yet
    Issue 1) is under investigation by Matan

    Maybe just the blanks in the image name?
    Code:
    sexy girl surf.jpg
        ^    ^
    maybe you need some quotes around it

    Hey Iceman600... run this.

    cd /home/user/MyDocs
    for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 ; do wget http://my.arava.co.il/~matan/770/n900/backgrounds/$i.png ; done
    gconftool -s /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/views/active -t list --list-type int [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]
    for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 ; do gconftool -s /apps/osso/hildon-desktop/views/$i/bg-image -t string /home/user/MyDocs/$i.png ; done


    that will do it.

    (Edit) Once you have done that reboot and all your screens will have no's 1-9... or how ever many you have set to use..
    then find the wallpaper you want in your images open it up and then set as the background.. same way you would set the back ground before you had the extra screens..

    Kind regards Qosmio

    maybe you need some quotes around it
