Unfortunately, it seems that IceWM doesn't support desktop icons, you
have to use another program as a desktop. Get dfm (Desktop File Manager)
and use it with IceWM. The line in xinitrc should look like

exec dfm& icewm

Now you may configure desktop wallpaper and icons by right-click on
desktop the same way as in windows. 

However, if you need just wallpaper on a desktop without icons, IceWM
can handle this, look in 'preferences' file. Usualy

~/.icewm/preferences or /usr/X11R6/etc/X11/icewm/preferences

There should be strings like 

# DesktopBackgroundColor = "rgb:55/55/7f"
# DesktopBackgroundColor = ""
# DesktopBackgroundImage = ""

Just uncomment and edit them.


Hope this helps.
