fbsetbg is jacked up. PLease help

[STORMPROOF]

When I run fbsetbg /path/to/my/wallpaper I get the following error message.

Esetroot: error while loading shared libraries: libImlib2.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So with the little linux skill that I have I look for the library.

find / -name liblmlib2.so.1 -print

and

locate libImlib2.so.1

They both turned zero results. So I looked into my /usr/lib and I don't see the libImlib2.so.1 file.

Please help I have no wallpaper in Fluxbox at this time and I am looking
at a black background. This is a life emergency
:D

which distro?
can you find it with find / | grep -i imlib ?
Bet you can! :D
Try running ldconfig too.

Well to help any newb that is newer than me I ran

bsetbg /path/to/my/wallpaer and that fixed setting the wallpaper.


I don't know what happen to fbsetbg. I am open still for help on fixing the fbsetbg problem


On another note I found bsetbg in /usrX11/bin

I am running slackware 10

can you find it with find / | grep -i imlib ?
Bet you can!


je_fro you ain't never lied. I sure did find it. DAMN! LOL

I like that find a lot better. I did try the ldconfig thing beforehand and that did not fix it.

If I do find exactly the one that I am looking for will I have to create some kind of symbolic link. DONO just asking.

Wow, is this the freaky avatar thread or what?:D

For reference, it looks like you might have had a typo in your find command with a lower case L instead of an upper case i. You also might need to run "updatedb" as root before locate will find the file.

To fix fbsetbg, can you try re-installing imlib and/or Eterm (which I believe Esetroot is part of) and see if that fixes the problem?
