Just tried it (via ~/.xinitrc). The background color is drawn, and
that's it -- KDE doesn't even start anymore. And yes, I used "exec" for
it, so the script should continue (or do I need to add the "&" at the
end despite of "exec"?)

It's not an image (at least I think), it's just a background color.

I explicitely grep'd for nautilus ("ps aux|grep naut"), but it is *not*
running.

Always Murphy, as you know: "If it works fine for everybody, *you* will
encounter a problem with it"...
