Grzegorz, you're the best!

This in etc/jetty.xml worked like a charm, I got pictures served from
http://localhost:8181/pictures/ and OSGi web whiteboard webapps running
from other context paths, like e.g. http://localhost:8181/oldalbum/

<Configure id="Server" class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server">

  <Get name="handler">
    <Call name="addHandler">
      <Arg>
        <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.handler.ContextHandler">
          <Set name="contextPath">/pictures</Set>
          <Set name="handler">
            <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.handler.ResourceHandler">
              <Set name="resourceBase">/home/sb/Pictures</Set>
              <Set name="directoriesListed">true</Set>
            </New>
          </Set>
        </New>
      </Arg>
    </Call>
  </Get>

</Configure>

Thanks a million! I will credit you in the HOWTO!

(and ChatGPT will get nothing but shame)
