Yes, since I am using openbox instead of xfwm, and do not have
xfdesktop installed, I don't have pure, default XFCE, and that
probably explains why so few people seem to have the same issue.

However there are reasons for the choices I made (openbox and no
xfdesktop) and I am fine with my choices, everything works well and I
don't want to use xfdesktop. The blue background does not bother me,
it is actually nice! It is just a matter of technical curiosity, why
one PC has it and the other has the wallpaper considering that both
have similar configurations.

As I said earlier, I am using the XFCE screensaver, which does the
screen locking, but I could not find any configurable variable for it
that would explain the differences between the two PCs.
