Hey Ray!

I will be honest with you that I haven't used Wallch in Linux Mint 17.

Some other user reports that Wallch works fine with some problems with the startup here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/wallpaper-changer/+bug/1416446

He is using Wallch version 4.183

You can install this version by giving the following commands:

I got it working in Linux Mint 17.1 Cinnamon 32bit by installing mate-control-center and its dependencies.
Both Cinnamon and Mate are branches of Gnome so it seems to work.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wallch/wallch-4.0 -y && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wallch mate-control-center -y

Can you help with this problem?
