Do not know about point 1, however for point 2 can you get to open the desktop configuration dialog? it can ( with the default desktop containment ) be found as a right click option. for the folderview containment it is found as "Folder View Settings" in the cashew on the desktop. Changing the desktop background there should work.
Also KDE 4.0.x lives in the stable repository, KDE 4.2.x in unstable and KDE 4.1.x in factory. so how did you install KDE 4.1.2 from stable?

You are using the folderview containment ( silly me i thought you meant the default ). in that case the configuration can be accessed through the cashew ( quarter of a circle in the upper right corner )

Since the late betas of 0.99 nearly a decade ago, KWM has had the ability to put different wallpaper on each desktop. This is an ergonomic point in its favor, since it helps the user keep both organized and oriented. This ability is now (unfortunately) unique to KDE, and the thought that it was simply abandoned by the v4 planners in favor of still more distracting eye-candy hardly reassures one of the planners' foresight and maturity.
Are you sure grownups are still in charge at KDE central?

This is for sure one of the more unnecessary comments. Would you have followed this and other threads you would see that this particular feature now is going in again. And second, no one ever said this feature will be gone. It simply wasn't implemented till now.
Clearly no need for a comment about the maturity of the devs. |

You are right, Never, I overreacted; you have my apologies.
In my own defense I can only say that over the last decade, I have watched as GNOME lost its way first in one direction, then another; as Enlightenment, a body of code containing many fascinating ideas, was never really stabilized because rather than settle down and bulletproof the existing code, its developers were constantly chasing ever cooler effects; as Gecko, originally planned as a lean, fast rewrite of the Netscape engine, gained weight and lost speed to the point that it's almost as much of a crawling memory hog as its predecessor, and so on and so on. Much of my natural optimism and charity has unfortunately been beaten out of me over the years. And I am utterly horrified by the thought of the same fate awaiting KDE, which I do dearly love. Kate, to take just one example, finally freed us from the lunatic quirkiness of Emacs and the incredible overhead of a statically-linked NEdit; for that alone KDE deserves a statue in the square. I've been building and running KDE since 0.99-beta-godknows, and I can't imagine using my computer without it. So again I apologize for my overreaction; my only excuse is emotional involvement. |

That's happens, sure.
I know what you mean. But that was one of the points why KDE4 was written from scratch. Much of the code was simply getting unmaintainable or at least to complex to really port it to Qt4. So most of it is new, and it needs time and manpower (hint for everybody! ![]() But you can be sure, the day will come ![]() And with 4.2 around the corner a big step towards that will be done. Stay tuned ![]() |
