Hi I just would like to make a report about FreeBSD-14-Release and it is about when setting  up a wallpaper, it is not working and not showing anything. Even if you add a folder in Cinnamon Desktop then the wallpaper cannot be selected.

I've been running Cinnamon too for a while, and most of its numerous little flaws on FreeBSD can be kinda easily solved/workarounded one way or another.

With regards to setting up a wallpaper, you can do the following:

gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.background picture-uri "YOUR WALLPAPER"

Hope it helps
