What is feh?
feh is an X11 image viewer aimed mostly at console users. Unlike most other viewers, it does not have a fancy GUI, but simply displays images. It is controlled via commandline arguments and configurable key/mouse actions.Feh homepage

Installing feh
After adding your USE flags (or not) to /etc/portage/package.use/feh, you can emerge feh:
root # emerge feh
Using feh
Set desktop background
feh has several options for setting your desktop background:
- --bg-center: Center the image file on the background. If the image file is smaller in resolution than the screen resolution, it will have black borders around it.
- --bg-scale: Fit the image to the background without repeating it, cutting parts of the image off, or using black borders. Because of these changes, the aspect ratio is not preserved.
- --bg-fill: Similar to --bg-scale except that it tries to fill the image to the screen while maintaining its aspect ratio. This may result in parts of the image being cut off.
- --bg-max: Similar to --bg-fill, except that scales the image to the maximum size that fits the screen. This leads to black borders on one side.
- --bg-tile: Tile the image across the screen.
Here is an example:
root # feh --bg-scale ~/path/to/picture.jpg
Tip
After feh has been run once to set a desktop background, you can source ~/.fehbg in your .config/openbox/autostart
