Description:

Wally is a Qt4 wallpaper changer, using multiple sources like files, folders, FTP remote folders, Flickr, Yahoo!, Panoramio, Ipernity, Photobucket, Buzznet, Picasa, Smugmug, Google, Vladstudio and deviantART images. It runs under Linux, Win32, MacOSX and OS/2, and it's available in many languages.

Supported Window Managers:
- Win32
- MacOSX (using OSA scripts)
- KDE3
- KDE4 (using WallyPlugin)
- Gnome
- GnomeShell
- XFCE4
- Fluxbox
- Blackbox
- FVWM (unstable)
- WindowMaker

If you are upgrading KDE4 to 4.4, you must rebuild from sources, cause WallyPlugin can crash Plasma. DEB files are available for Lucid.


NOTE FOR KUBUNTU!!!!
If you're upgrading to 10.04 Lucid, KDE4 will crash at boot. To recover your system, just do the following steps:

- Press Alt-F2, type "konsole"
- At prompt, type "sudo rm /usr/lib/kde4/plasma_wallpaper_wallyplugin.so"
- Restart your system.
- KDE4 should start normally. Please remove Wally, and download the specific package for Lucid, available below.


Note for Ubuntu users: if you're using KDE4, please use KDE4 ONLY packages!!!

Note for Mac OSX Snow Leopard:
You must disable "Change Picture" feature, that's in System preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Change picture.

Note for Windows 2000/XP: Active desktop must be disabled! Right-click on desktop -> Properties -> Customize desktop -> Web -> Uncheck all items you find there

Of course! I've planned a new release, cause I caught a bug in HTTP cancel process, so can you post (or better, send an email to tony (at) becrux (dot) com), the command line required to change desktop background? The command should require only the full path name of the wallpaper, I don't need other parameters.

Thank so much in advance :)

I think, they will not answer...

Webshot files can be downloaded manually, and stored in a local folder.
If it is possible, you can use them as wallpappers also on linux. They offer it.
With a little copyright risk, wbc files also can be imported from a win partition.
What about the local folder solution?

Hi,

you must use Qt4 in order to build Wally.

Anyway, KDE4 is not supported at the moment, cause it doesn't offer a public interface for wallpaper change.

Hi,

have you read README.KDE4?

Briefly you must compile WallyPlugin and install it. Then you've to choose "WallyPlugin" in your desktop configuration (right-clicking on your desktop).

After a restart of KDE, you should see your wallpaper changing.

Please write me if something goes wrong, and I'll ask you to do some tests.

At the moment, I don't have a WallyPlugin deb file, last weekend I succeeded in producing Ubuntu packages.

I'll post WallyPlugin packages ASAP, in the meanwhile you can download sources and you'll find WallyPlugin in "wallyplugin" directory.

Just follow steps reported in README.KDE4, it shouldn't be so difficult.

Ok.

Can you make these two tests?

1. In a console, just type "wally -debug", and check if KDE4 is detected

2. In a console, type "qdbus" and check if "com.becrux.WallyPlugin" appears.

Don't worry.

Ok, Wally works with KDE4, the problem is that D-BUS denies access if you're not root (that's why it works with my system).

I'll solve the problem definitively in next days, I just ask you for this handy solution, if you can test it.

Just find out your D-BUS system configuration directory, it should be something like /etc/dbus-1/system.d

Create a wally.conf file in it, and type these lines in this file:



<!-- This configuration file specifies the required security policies for WallyPlugin to work. -->

<!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC "-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN"
"http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd">
<busconfig>

<policy context="default">
<allow send_destination="com.becrux.WallyPlugin"/>
</policy>

</busconfig>



Save and restart your PC (not only KDE, all your system).

After that, Wally should work correctly.

Can you tell me if it works for you?

Thank you so much.

Well, it means that you haven't installed wally, or you removed it.

It HAS TO BE in /usr/bin.

And, YOU HAVE TO SEE "com.becrux.WallyPlugin" interface in qdbus. So please BE SURE that you selected "WallyPlugin" in your Desktop Settings.

No.

Wally is /usr/bin cause you installed wally deb file, and it puts executable in /usr/bin. Btw, did deb installation procedure failed?

WallyPlugin is only a KDE plugin, and that isn't in /usr/bin. It's automatically installed by cmake, so you don't have to care for that.

As long as you can't set WallyPlugin as default plugin image in Appearance Settings, service won't be available.

If you succeed in setting WallyPlugin there, you've to restart KDE.

Just as last question:

in your Appearance Settings, do you have at least plugins like "Image" and "Color"?

Cause, if you don't have those plugins, you don't have an up-to-date Plasma version of KDE, it means that you've a 4.1 or a partial 4.2.

I can see that cmake installs WallyPlugin in /usr/local/lib/kde4/plasma_wallpaper_wallyplugin.so.

Can you check if you have something like /usr/lib/kde4 and that you have image and color inside?

In this case, try to move wallyplugin.so to that directory, and restart KDE.

Maybe is CMake that installs wallyplugin wrongly :(

You should already have something like plasma_wallpaper_color.so located somewhere in your KDE installation.

WallyPlugin has to be in the same directory.

Ok.

Please move plasma_wallpaper_wallyplugin.so in that directory and restart KDE. You should see it.

Ok, but do you see WallyPlugin now, and can you see com.becrux.WallyPlugin with qdbus?

ok.

If you want, just write me an email at tony (at) becrux (dot) com, it's better for us to continue our debugging there.

In the meanwhile, I fixed the "/usr/local" problem.
