** Description changed:

  I have a script that randomly selects a wallpaper from my art folder and
  than uses the command "fbsetbg" to set it as my background. This script
  is in my ~/.fluxbox/startup file.
  
- The script runs fine and displays the wallpaper when I boot. I noticed,
- however, when I run certain programs (WINE in particular) the fluxbox
- background just disappears, and goes back to a plain gray. I am fairly
- certain the problem is not with the script or the entry on my startup
- file, but I am providing them below anyway.

  Here is my startup file:
  
  wallpaper.sh
  gaim &
  xmms ~/music/GamingFMClassicConsoleLowBW.pls &
  swiftfox &
  exec /usr/local/bin/fluxbox
  
  and the script (wallpaper.sh):
  
  #!/bin/bash 
  WALLPAPERS="/home/paul/wallpaper" #change this path for your system 
  ALIST=( `ls -w1 /home/paul/wallpaper` ) 
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
  let "number = $RANDOM" 
  let LASTNUM="`cat $WALLPAPERS/.last` + $number" 
  let "number = $LASTNUM % $RANGE" 
  echo $number > $WALLPAPERS/.last 
  fbsetbg $WALLPAPERS/${ALIST[$number]} &
