Why I wrote this guide:
After hunting around on google for about an hour looking for a guide for myself. I finally gave up and went back through the gui, this is not one of those things one would find intuitive so I thought I'd throw up this little guide, its fast and easy, and best of all its point and click, drag and drop.

Code: Select all

Right Click on the ROX Panel
Hover Over ROX-Filer
Left Click on Options
At the Bottom of the Menu Left click on Compatibility
UNCHECK [i]Pass all backdrop mouse clicks to window manager[/i]
Okay now we can actually set the wallpaper.

Code: Select all

With the assumption that you have already enabled ROX Pinboard, now you will Right Click on the Desktop (actually the pinboard) 
Left Click on Backdrop...
Open a folder containing the image you wish to use for your Pinboard Background, drag it and drop it into the [i]Drop image here[/i] box. 

Code: Select all

Okay, almost done, just go back into the ROX-Filer Options again as per the first set of directions.
Then put the check mark back on [i]Pass all backdrop mouse clicks to window manager[/i]. 
Okay thats it, now your done, as a side note you may want to disable wallpaper in fluxbox, not point in sucking up any more ram than you have to, and if your like me, half the point of antix is that it runs great on old hardware (which can tend to be memory and disk space challenged.)
