Also, make sure you set the background for the root window with Esetroot or an appropriate tool that comes with your window manager (hsetroot, fbsetbg, etc).

What if you're using Sawfish/Metacity. You don't get any background settings tools with those do you. To get Esetroot I need to emerge Eterm. Aterm comes with nothing. Can you tell me a package name that contains fbsetbg hsetroot or anything else.

Thanks

fbsetbg comes with fluxbox (I'm not sure if it comes with 0.1.4 though), and it's quite nice - although it's just a wrapper for a number other programs, like esetroot etc.
