I don't use a background on my root window, so why should it be an error
if fvwm can't find one?
You are probably asking fvwm to compute an average background color in
one of your colorsets. The solution is to remove the "bg average"
option from that colorset.
If you still can't find the source of the problem, please post here
your colorset config.
Thanks Renato, now the error makes more sense.
Here are my colorsets;
Colorset 1 fg black, bg #8FA4BF, Plain, NoShape
Colorset 2 fg black, bg grey, NoShape, RootTransparent buffer, Tint white 10
Colorset 3 fg black, bg grey, NoShape, RootTransparent buffer, Tint white 20
Colorset 4 fg black, bg Khaki1, Plain, NoShape
Colorset 5 fg black, bg rgb:00/00/50, Plain, NoShape
Colorset 6 fg Black, bg gray60, hi gray75, sh gray30
Colorset 7 fg Black, bg rgb:ae/b2/c3, hi gray95, sh gray40
Colorset 8 fg Black, hi White, DGradient 128 1 #f6f6f6 50 #101010, sh black 50
Colorset 9 NoShape, VGradient 13 1 #f6f6f6 50 #000000, Alpha 50
Colorset 10 VGradient 13 1 #f6f6f6 50 gray40
The error is listed 3 times in my .xsession file.
Duane.
