Check in your home directory for a file called .bsetbgrc. When
it was first run, bsetbg created this file and searched your
system for suitable programs. It chooses one program to be used,
but includes data in the file to set up most others. Mine contains

### xli
FULL="xli -fillscreen -onroot -quiet"
TILE="xli -onroot -quiet"
CENTER="xli -center -onroot quiet"
DEFAULT="xli -center -onroot quiet"

### display
# FULL="display -geometry 800x600 -window root"
# TILE="display -window root"
# CENTER="display -backdrop -window root"
# DEFAULT="display -backdrop -window root"

### wmsetbg
# FULL="wmsetbg -s -S"
# TILE="wmsetbg -t"
# CENTER="wmsetbg -e"
# DEFAULT="wmsetbg -e"

If I were to put #'s in front of the lines under xli, and remove
the #'s from the lines under wmsetbg, bsetbg would use wmsetbg to
set the background images (and eterm should work).

If you've installed other background image programs since you first
ran bsetbg, you can just remove .bsetbgrc and run bsetbg again to
recreate the file, and then edit it by hand to use the program
you want.
