Linux First Steps Part I
The following items highlight some of the preferences you might want to change:
Accessibility??”If you have difficulty operating a mouse or keyboard, the Keyboard
Accessibility Preferences (AccessX) window lets you adapt mouse and keyboard settings
to make it easier for you to operate your computer. From the Preferences window, open
Accessibility.
Desktop Background??”From Desktop Background Preferences, you can choose a solid
color or an image to use as wallpaper. If you choose to use a solid color (by selecting No
Wallpaper), click the Color box, select a color from the palette, and click OK.
To use wallpaper for your background, open the folder containing the image you
want to use, and then drag the image into the Desktop Wallpaper pane on the Desktop
Preferences window. You can choose from a variety of images in the /usr/share/
nautilus/patterns and /usr/share/backgrounds/tiles directories. Then
choose to have the wallpaper image tiled (repeated pattern), centered, scaled (in proportion),
or stretched (using any proportion to fill the screen).
Screensaver??”Choose from dozens of screen savers from the Screensaver window. Select
Random to have your screen saver chosen randomly from those you mark with a check,
or select one that you like from the list to use all the time.
