setting bg in Flux (Chad pay attention :) )
Hi there!
Smth happened - I cannot set my bg in FLux: I put in some style rootCommand: bsetbg -full ~/.fluxbox/backgrounds/backgroung.jpg and nothing works :( I have read all FAQ's any another ideas? |
Did something work before? Also, is the image that you want as your bg really located in .fluxbox or some other directory?
|
I really don't remember!!!
the image I want to set is in /root/.fluxbox/background/darksystem.jpg |
And are you root? You shouldn't be! :D You root surfer! Just kidding buddy. If you know the image is located in, say /home/images/chad.png then use that in your entry:
rootCommand: bsetbg -full /home/images/chad.png And that's just an example, but shows what I am saying. Cool |
I should put it in init or style?
|
You know, I am pretty sure I have mine in init. Try it in init.
Cool |
Damn.......It doesn't work...........
|
If it's in /root, and you aren't root, then move the image, or rather, copy the image to a location that your user can use it.
|
Place this line in your ~/.fluxbox/init file:
session.screen0.rootCommand: bsetbg -f /home/images/image.png Replacing /home/images/image.png with the location of the file. Remember it has to be a place accessible by the user in question. Cool |
Wait a second ... is there some different if I will put a jpg image or png? Mine is in jpg :)
|
I doubt it. I am just partial to png's. Better quality for the compression.
Cool |
Did the plug above not work when placing it in .fluxbox/init?
|
once again nothing works.......I think it is time for rest.....In 2 back to Linux and I will try to configure background in Flux again
thnx for help Chad! |
I got that straight from the flux docs. It's what I used, and it worked first time up. Although if you are doing this as root, that might be your pull. Maybe root can't set bg's. Also, might be a permissions problem, that's what keeps coming back to me, unless of course you are root.
Cool |
No problem ;)
Good luck :) |
