[Solved] No wallpaper and unable to access wallpapers path

Hi people. I have just installed Hydrogen (RC2) 64b and found a problem. There was not any wallpaper after login (still the Lightdm one, I mean, and Concky not working well because of that).

I have tried to select one in Openbox Menu -> Preferences -> Choose Wallpaper but there was nothing to choose. I did see in Nitrogen preferences the path to the shared folder where they were supposed to be (/home/username/Pictures/wallpapers/shared) but it has been impossible to access. In fact, I have not even been able to do with Thunar.

It has been solved by adding the path /usr/share/images/bunsen/wallpapers in Nitrogen preferences. Working well now.

Did the fix fix the conky problem as well?

I know old but ... I just saw it.

Yes, it did. I guess Conky couldn't be transparent (it was the problem) because there wasn't a proper wallpaper behind.
