Topic: nitrogen doesn't work same after update

When I first installed Crunchbang Nitrogen allowed me to use different wallpapers on each desktop. After marking all upgrades in Synaptic it will only allow one wallpaper for both desktops, I later ran cb-welcome but it didn't help. I tried searching the forum with no luck, is there a config file I can try editing or another solution?

Re: nitrogen doesn't work same after update

Strange... I have the most recent version of nitrogen and it works fine for me.
Perhaps try removing and re-installing it?

I'll have to give it a try, should I use synaptic to remove the config files too?

Just do this:

sudo apt-get purge nitrogen
rm -r ~/.config/nitrogen/
sudo apt-get install nitrogen
