Package: Fluxbox
Version: 1.1.1-6

>From Downstream --

Hello,
I wanted to set the default background in my Fluxbox in ~/.fluxbox/overlay file.
Its current content is:

background: aspect
background.pixmap: /home/hacx/obrazky/yellowgradient.jpg

When Fluxbox starts, or when I restart fluxbox, I get a small window saying:

fbsetbg: Something went wrong while setting the wallpaper.
Run 'display -geometry 1024x768+0+0 -window root
/home/hacx/obrazky/yellowgradient.jpg' from an xterm to find out what.

---

When i run "display -geometry 1024x768+0+0 -window root
/home/hacx/obrazky/yellowgradient.jpg", I get no error. Even before
this message occurs, the background
is also displayed properly.

So I am wondering, why does this message always pop up, if everything
seems alright? :-)

Thanks in advance, for suggestions.
Regards, Tony.



One solution given



fixed testing fbsetbg with option -i , then installing "feh"

$ fbsetbg -i

display doesn't set the wallpaper properly. Transparency for fluxbox
and apps like aterm and xchat won't work right with it. Consider
installing feh, wmsetbg (from windowmaker) or Esetroot (from Eterm)
and I'll use them instead.

$ sudo aptitude install feh

fixed ;)


I don't consider this fixed. We should resolve this upstream
regardless of Ubuntu considers this fixed

I've added feh to the recommends.

I think that may be the best bet as of right now.
