TC 8.0 no wallpaper after boot (sometimes)
Juanito:
No, there were no changes to .setbackground or .xsession in tc-8.x/9.x.
thane:
I did some more fiddling and it appears to be related to Xorg. When I removed Xorg and rebooted with just Xvesa the background was set, although the display was distorted because Xvesa doesn't have any settings that match my monitor. I'll keep checking. Thanks.

<edit> When I deleted the xf86-video-nv extension (which contains the correct drivers for my monitor) and rebooted, the background was set. When I reloaded the extension and rebooted the background was again black. Maybe try moving the entry for the extension around in the onboot list?
curaga:
Hm, so -nv related, and now it's consistent. Please try to grab the errors from .setbackground, redirect to some file in /tmp.
thane:
#!/bin/sh
hsetroot -full /opt/backgrounds/seattle_4.jpg >/tmp/bg.log 2>&1
[ $(which wbar.sh) ] && wbar.sh
tmp/bg.log shows:
Segmentation fault
curaga:
Can you build it with debug symbols, and try to get a core dump? "ulimit -c unlimited" allows core dumps.
