asetroot is the module, so you have to start it as :
Module "I" asetroot
make sure that you have
*PagerDontDrawBg
option in your Pager file.
Alternatevely you can run asetroot as regular x app (it won't stay resident then
)
run it as :
asetroot -l
I actually have it in my .xinitrc file even before afterstep - this way when
afterstep comes up
root background will be in place already - saves time.
If you start it this way then you will need to have *PagerDontDrawBg commented
out,
otherwise you would not be able to switch backgrounds via menu.
Also you have to check that you have valid asetroot config file.
refer to a man page( man asetroot ) and sample asetroot config supplied in
distro.
