I've been meaning to report this myself for some time. It is rather inconvenient if one wants to determine the name and location of a background image in one's list of backgrounds, in order to repair or modify the image, or in order just to find it for use on another system, for example.
Earlier releases (Hardy, Jaunty) have this tooltip feature, and it seems it has been restored in Lucid. However, Lucid is still in its alpha and beta stages, and the current versions in fact do not run properly on some of my computers. So it would be desirable to put this feature back into the Karmic gnome- control-center package. This runs as gnome-appearance-properties --show-page=background I assume the program stores the list of paths to the background selections somewhere; the path to the current selection shows in ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/background/%gconf.xml -- gnome-appearance-properties no longer provides tooltips about background image names https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/517920 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
