From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Dynamic wallpaper changer lost (slrpnk.net)

Hey guys,

A few weeks ago I installed KDE Neon to try out plasma 6 on my laptop.

During this process I installed a wallpaper changer that had a nice looking GUI to set a bunch of wallpapers to change during different times of day based on the sun cycle.

Since then I distro hopped around a few times and have landed back on Neon, but for the life of me I cant find or remember the application that did it.

Ive looked at all the highly rated ones like variety, wallch etc but none of these are it.

Do you guys have any clue what it could have been? (Not sunpaper either as that doesnt have a GUI)

Tip:

bookmark ALL useful websites.
Star ALL useful/ interesting git projects
Put such things into your home dir which does not change when distro hopping. home dir will always stay there no matter what.

Unless you've put it on the same partition as root

Although this is very similar it isnt it.

The one I used even had some of these wallpapers but a really easy UI and you could add your own wallpapers all through gui without terminal.

Starting to think i dreamed it but my wife insists I didnt shut up about it when I had it the first time.
