          • Thanks a lot Christopher. I set it up as below. <!-- Virtual Desktops --> <!-- Desktop tags can be contained within Desktops for desktop names. --> <Desktops width="4" height="1"> <!-- Default background. Note that a Background tag can be contained within a Desktop tag to give a specific background for that desktop. --> <Background type="solid">#7CFC00</Background> I'm really thankful to you.

          You can set the background image interactively if you install feh.



          feh --no-fehbg --bg-fill some-image.jpg


          (I use the optional --no-fehbg switch to avoid writing the ~/.fehbg file.)
