1. Click Applications › System Tools › Settings › Background.

2. Click Background or Lock Screen.

3. Click Wallpapers, Pictures, or Colors.

   Wallpapers are preconfigured images distributed with your system. Pictures are your own images from your Pictures directory (~/Pictures). Colors are predefined colors chosen by GNOME developers.

1. Click Applications › System Tools › Settings › Bluetooth to open the Bluetooth settings module.

2. To use Bluetooth, turn the Bluetooth switch on.

3. To make your computer visible over Bluetooth, turn the Visibility switch on. You do not need this option to be turned on to connect to a Bluetooth device after the initial setup.

   

   Note: Temporary Visibility

   Visibility is only meant to be used temporarily. You do not need this option to be turned on to connect to a Bluetooth device after the initial setup.

   However, on openSUSE Leap, the Visibility setting will not automatically be turned off after a certain period of time. Instead, you will need to turn it off yourself.

4. The Devices list contains all known Bluetooth devices. At first, it may be empty.

   To add a device to the list, click the plus icon in the lower left corner.

5. On the device you want to connect, turn on Bluetooth connectivity and visibility.

6. Select the desired device from the list.

   To filter for a specific device, open the drop-down box next to Device Type and choose a type such as Phone. To see all available devices, use All Types.

   To change whether to use a PIN, click PIN Options. Then select the appropriate option. However, usually you do not need to change PIN options.

7. Click Continue. You will now need to wait for a few seconds.

8. If a PIN was used, confirm whether the PIN of the two devices matched. You need to do this on both devices. The device should now be connected.

   Depending on the device type, you can now either see it as a storage device in GNOME Files, set a volume for it in the Sound settings or other things.

1. Click Applications › System Tools › Settings › Power to open the Power settings module.

2. In the upper part of the dialog, you can see the current state of the battery.

3. In the Power Saving section of the dialog, set the Screen Brightness to conserve power. You can also set whether to dim the screen after a period of inactivity and set the time interval. You can also set whether to turn off wireless networking after the period of inactivity.

4. In the Suspend and Power Off section of the dialog, set the Automatic Suspend. When you click it, a separate dialog opens.

   In it, you can turn on automatic suspending and associated time intervals. If you are using a computer with a battery, you can set these separately for computer running on battery power or plugged in.

   You can also set the action performed when the battery power is critical. Choose Hibernation to use a mode where the computer turns off completely but saves your running session to the hard disk. Alternatively, choose Power Off to turn the computer off without saving the session.

1. To find the right monitor, look for the numbers displayed in the upper left corner of all monitors. To set options for a monitor, click the list item of the monitor. A new dialog appears.

2. If multiple monitors are attached to the computer, the left part of the dialog will allow you to choose how to use the monitor. You can choose between:

   Primary

   The screen that shows the panel and important messages.

   Secondary Display

   A monitor that expands the desktop of the primary monitor.

   Mirror

   A monitor that mirrors the image on the primary monitor. In terms of resolution, the lowest common denominator will be used.

   Turn Off

   A screen that is not used.

   To rotate the displayed image, use the buttons with the arrows pointing left and right. To mirror the displayed image, use the button with the double arrow icon.

   You can set a different resolution by changing the value next to Resolution. Not all resolutions provide a sharp and unstretched image. To find the best resolution for your monitor, refer to its manual.

3. When you are done, click Apply.

   The monitors will now readjust. This can take multiple seconds during which the screen can be black or distorted.

   Afterwards, a confirmation dialog will appear.

4. If the configuration looks correct, click Keep Changes.

   If the configuration is not what you hoped for, click Revert Settings or wait for 20 seconds. The changes will then be reverted.
