Hi,
I also have the two screens, and use the almost same sentences.
The slight difference is that I will start a timer and rotate
my wallpaper after some time. In this case,
gears.wallpaper.maximized works without any problem.
I hope it can help you debug your problem.
homedir = os.getenv("HOME")
wp_index = {}
wp_timeout = 3600
wp_path = homedir.."/.config/wallpapers/"
wp_filter = function(s) return string.match(s,"%.png$") or
string.match(s,"%.jpg$") end
wp_files = scandir(wp_path, wp_filter)
-- setup the timer
local wp_timer = timer { timeout = wp_timeout }
wp_timer:connect_signal("timeout", function()
-- set wallpaper to current index for all screens
for s = 1, screen.count() do
wp_index[s] = math.random( 1, #wp_files)
gears.wallpaper.maximized(wp_path .. wp_files[wp_index[s]], s)
end
if wp_timer.started then
wp_timer:stop()
else
wp_timer:start()
end
