I have been able to use previous versions of xloadimage just fine, but
with the new 3.01 version, when I try to run the -onroot option I get..

  xloadimage: X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) on 0x0
  XGetWindowAttributes on root failed.

I am running on a DecStation 5000/PX, with the R3 server, but I built
xloadimage with R4 libraries. Any ideas?
