Openbox feh wallpaper overwritten

It's a very strange thing that's happening. feh loads the correct initial wallpaper, but this mild grey 'wallpaper' covers it. And after some programs load (like aMSN), I have to drag, for example, aMSN around the screen to 'clean' off the grey wallpaper to reveal the desired background. I've disabled xcompmgr, and moved around my .xinitrc startup procedures, but none have worked. I like a good clean desktop, but this is going too far!

Any suggestions?

Re: Openbox feh wallpaper overwritten

I had the same problem before where both nitrogen and pcmanfm were trying to set the wallpaper, resulting in neither working right.

I guess you just have to find out what else is trying to controll the background.
