First things first, it's "Fremantle", the code names come from a list of

The backgrounds can be changed by writing the image file name to GConf:

/apps/osso/hildon-desktop/views/0/bg-image
/apps/osso/hildon-desktop/views/1/bg-image
/apps/osso/hildon-desktop/views/2/bg-image
/apps/osso/hildon-desktop/views/3/bg-image

(This is how N900's Images application does it.)
