The title says it all - if anyone could point me to the default
red hat 6 desktop wallpapers, or the name of the rpm-package
containing them, it'd be much appreciated. I don't want to
download the whole distro just to extract some jpgs..
In particular, I'd be interested in the wallpaper pictured here:

Thanks!

Seems to me that the desktop posted is of a high enough resolution that you could edit it in GIMP to make wallpaper.

it's from a 1680x1050 shot like the above one.
for future reference... the backgrounds are in:
desktop-backgrounds-x.x.x-x.noarch.rpm (seem to be only tiles in the propaganda directory)
desktop-backgrounds-basic-x.x-x.noarch.rpm (just one default and several "space" themed images)
desktop-backgrounds-extra-x.x-x.noarch.rpm (this is where the most variety seems to be)
with x's being version numbers... I went through like 50 different versions of those rpm's and still didn't find this specific wallpaper
P.S. 7zip extracts RPM files (which contain .cpio archives, that 7zip can also extract) for anyone else who might need to do the same

I went thru those, gnome, kde, and any other ones I thought an image would be in, browsed deviant art for a couple hours... I mean I really don't think it exists on the net as a clean wallpaper
It kinda hurt my ego that I couldn't find it... I consider myself a quite good digger
