WindowMaker is not showing Background !
 
Hi,
I just installed my Wmaker. But the background for the themes that i've installed using setstyle command is not putting the corresponding wallpaper/picture as the background. What is the solution for this?
And moreover if i want to reinstall the wmaker, how to proceed with unintallation of wmaker?

Thnx in advance,

:newbie:

6.3 Why do my themes not load the background?

Likely you have not compiled Window Maker with support for the background image format, usually JPEG.

You can check this by the following command

ldd `which wmaker`

If libjpeg is not listed, you will need to install libjpeg that is available from ftp.windowmaker.org
this help?
