Is there anyway to change the default background image in blackrhino?
There are many ways to change the background. However, I think the easiest is to:
Example where /home/adent/.fluxbox/wallpaper1.jpg is your favorite background image. It helps to resize it to the typical screen resolution. Don't start with a huge image, as this will just slow down the startup. I used a 640x480 jpeg image for this example.
Edit /home/adent/.fluxbox/init with vi or the adie editor.
Find the line starting with session.screen0.rootCommand and replace fbsetroot -solid "#3a404b"
with
feh --bg-scale /home/adent/.fluxbox/wallpaper1.jpg
leave the semi-colon ; and rest of the line as it is
To test, right-click, select "Fluxbox Menu", then select "Exit".
This drops you out of X-Windows to a text prompt. Enter "exit".
This restarts the X-Windows session, hopefully with your new background wallpaper.
I don't seem to have /home/adent/.fluxboxQuote:

Maybe you can just create the directory. The dot in .fluxbox means that the directory is hidden. You need to use "ls -a" to see it.
Thank you very much. You helped me quite a bit. With great success I've managed to change my backround image by your directions.Quote:
