Package: xloadimage
Version: 4.1-9

The "-background" option only works if the display window is the root
window... When using a X11 window the background around the image keeps
staying white whatever your efforts are to make it understand anything
else.

$ xloadimage -fullscreen -background black mypic.jpg

Using a 1024x768 screen and mypic.jpg being a 300x150 image for example.

xloadimage opens a fullscreen window as requested, displays the image
centered but the surrounding color remains white (as stated in the man page,this is the default color) instead of being black as the "-background"
option suggests.

I also tried "-border" as mentionned in the man page without any succes.

I'm using GNU/Linux 2.4.17, nVidia Kernel drivers 1.0.2314, Debian SID.
