Yes, and your supposition below looks very probable.

Yes again.  It seems that my belt-and-braces approach of using xplanetbg
which is supposed to background it plus the ampersand, &, which is 
supposed to do the same has not worked.  I shall just have to take it
out of my .xinitrc and make some sort of alias in .zshrc to start it.
A pity, as it is a very pretty background and I am rather lazy.

Thanks for your response.

Doug.
