I found these errors when trying to add my own style into DSL.
problem: If you try to set an image as a fullscreen background and it is smaller than the screen resolution, it only stretches horizontally and not vertically.
solution: You will need to edit the file '/home/damnsmall/.fluxbox/bsetbg'. Change the line that says
FULL="xsri --scale-width=100 --scale-width=100"
to
FULL="xsri --scale-width=100 --scale-height=100"
Now you can use the bsetbg -f option.
problem: Hotkeys don't work (mentioned before I beleive)
solution: edit file '/home/damnsmall/.fluxbox/init' and set
session.keyFile: .fluxbox/keys and then restart the window manager.
For those you wish to change your background, all you need to do is use the bsetbg command in an rxvt. Type bsetbg -h for all availible options. bsetbg -f /path/to/file works for me. You can also change your background by editing the rootcommand: in the current style file. DSL styles can be found here: 'KNOPPIX/usr/share/fluxbox/styles'. After saving file, you would need to restart or reconfigure the window manager from the right click menu.
To add a style, you can download a style file and save it in /home/damnsmall/.fluxbox/styles/. You can also download the accompaning background for it, and place it anywhere you choose. I mkdir /home/damnsmall/.fluxbox/backgrounds. To use the accompaning wallpaper with that style, you will most likely need to edit the rootcommand: line in that style file.
More from me later
