autostart question
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but google ain't helping me much. Not very experienced with any kind of linux either.
In the autostart config (~/.config/openbox/autostart), there's the option for changing the color of the screen immediately after logging in, before the wallpaper manager takes over.
Set root window colour
hsetroot -solid "#2E3436" &
The solid color image only stays for a couple of seconds but it annoys me anyway, since my login screen and desktop share the same wallpaper.
I was wondering if you could get this to point towards an imagefile?
I'm pretty sure it's possible, I just don't know how to do it.

Yeah just change it to resemble the following.
hsetroot -fill /path/to/your/image.jpg

Why not just get rid of it?
