The problem with this is that if I re-run xfdesktop, it will take the same
picture I have configured.  I could re-write the script to just run
xfdesktop. I then would need to include a parameter so the background is
displayed correctly. I have two screens and like two different
backgrounds.

So how wold I go about with what you sugest? Disadvantage might be that I
have two screens and I want to get a random order.

Also, what else would I miss if I don't run xfdesktop? I ask, because the
lack of the mouseclick is not a real disadvatage. I can still scroll from
desktop to desktop.

At this moment I rather have the background changes then the mousclick.
:-) Yet even if I do not change anything (for whatever reason) it is good
to know where the error comes from.
