I tried to dig an answer out of deja but failed. Basicly, my xinitrc has the following... -- # I'm a fat lazy slob (but I'm also unaddressable) xhost + & # It would be nice to use coral all the time... # xscreensaver -no-splash & # Setup the bottom window Eterm -M "" --name Messages --title Messages --watch-desktop --trans --shade --no-cursor --geometry 120x10+278+634 --exec /usr/bin/tail --lines 200 --follow /var/log/messages 2>/dev/null & wmaker -- But the background loaded from wmaker isn't up in time for eterm to do the transparency so it defaults to some default background *blech*. Ideas? (I'm sure this has been solved a million times). Thanks!
