nitrogen --restore isn't working

Hi, I've just installed arch and I must say that it's a wonderful dist!

I have only one small little problem. I'm using openbox, and since I want a wallpaper, I'm using nitrogen. nitrogen is working great, the only problem is that

nitrogen --restore

isn't

This is what happens:

nitrogen --restore
Could not get bg groups from config file

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Thanks!

Edit: Typo in the subject

Edit 2: I used feh instead, it worked perfect

Re: nitrogen --restore isn't working

hi -

can you post the contents of your ~/.config/nitrogen/bg-saved.cfg?

it should look like:

[:0.0]
file=/home/daf/media/bgs/mandolux-axed-r-1280.jpg
mode=0
bgcolor=#3f3f3f

or similar.

if you haven't got one of those, then maybe you didn't have the save checkbox pressed when you ran the gui last time to pick your bgs?
