System name:		m1-142-8
Type and version:	KN02ca 7.6G
Display type:		PMAG-DV 

What were you trying to do?
	I have a line in my .startup.X file which is supposed to
create a background using a picture I have in my account.
	Here is the line from my .startup.X:

		xv -max -root ~/images/gal &

	This line has worked properly, without fail, for several
months.

What's wrong:
	I recieved on error in my console saying (approximately):

		Bad Window
		Major opcode: 20

	(The 20 is definitely correct.)

What should have happened:
	The file ~/images/gal should have become the background.	

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	[Please replace this line with your information.]



PS - I use the window manager vtwm.gamma
