Dor copleteness, I *did* manage to change the background --
intermittently. I chose an image that was on my hard disk, used the
xfce coniguration menus to set it to being the background. It now
shows up some of the time when I log in. Other times I just get the
usual bland background.

No, don't waste time here debugging my use of Debian Jessie. There are
more important things I need to do.
