I tried to dig an answer out of deja but failed.  Basicly, my xinitrc
has the following...
--
# I'm a fat lazy slob (but I'm also unaddressable)
xhost + &
# It would be nice to use coral all the time...
# xscreensaver -no-splash &
# Setup the bottom window
Eterm -M "" --name Messages --title Messages --watch-desktop --trans --shade 
--no-cursor --geometry 120x10+278+634 --exec /usr/bin/tail --lines 200 --follow 
/var/log/messages 2>/dev/null &
wmaker
--

But the background loaded from wmaker isn't up in time for eterm to do
the transparency so it defaults to some default background *blech*.

Ideas? (I'm sure this has been solved a million times).

Thanks!

Jonathan
