FS#320 - Error setting wallpaper on startup
User who did this - Evgenii Terechkov (evg)
----------
I had this problem too, but error dialog on startup/restart says:
====================================================================================
awsetbg: Something went wrong while setting the wallpaper.
Run 'display -sample -window root
/usr/share/awesome/themes/default/background.png' from an xterm to find out
what.
====================================================================================
AFAIK, problem not in "display" itself, but in awset's dependency on xwinfo:
e...@evg ~ $ grep -A1 'display)' /usr/bin/awsetbg
display)
full="-sample `xwininfo -root 2> /dev/null|awk '/geom/{print $2}'` -window
root"
My system lack on "xwinfo", so display exit with code 1 and warning about
invalid arg to -sample keyword. I think that istalling xwinfo may workaround this bug,
but IMHO right way is to set wpsetters to right preference order. Personally I in my
build for ALT Linux set primary settler to xsetroot (I can't remove xsetroot without
removing awesome too by dependencies):
