 Hello misc@,

 I'm trying to remove the default checkerboard background that is shipped
 with the OpenBSD version of X.
 During my research I stumbled across this:

http://openbsd.7691.n7.nabble.com/X-Window-System-settings-for-better-user-experience-and-security-td187453.html
 Here a post from Matthieu Herrb suggests to add -br to
/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers
 to get rid of it. I changed the file and now it looks like this:
 :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -br :0 vt05
 however after a reboot nothing changed.
 I can successfully set the background under the xdm login form by
 modifying /etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0,
 but the rootweave is still shown for a couple of seconds before whatever
is
 present in Xsetup_0 is run.
 Have I done something wrong?

 Thank you and keep up the good work!

Use '-retard'.

Ciao,
David

I would also like to see a convenient, maintainable method to make this
little tweak. It's weird that this topic seems to provoke the bully-boy
brigade.
