Blackbox doesn't have backgrounds. The root window does. :) > I know that you use the Esetroot command to change the background, the > question that i have though is how do u make it stay like that. Ew. Don't use Esetroot. Don't go *near* Esetroot. Don't even THINK about Esetroot. *AHEM*. Anyway, Esetroot does other oddball things and is really indended only for use with things like Enlightenment. Use something else to set the root window. You could use xv, or display, or xloadimage, or wmsetbg, or what have you. Just not Esetroot. > If i use Esetroot, and then i restart blackbox or something like that, > the background is not what i set ut at but just a gradient.

You have to do it each time you fire up X, either by hand (like you've been doing), or from your ~/.xsession file. I'd put it in ~/.xsession, were I you. -- Marc Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
