Neither of the two files, slim_jessie.png and slim_ascii.png, are
identical to what I had as background for slim.

I am on ASCII which has been installed and functioning for several
months. Excuse me for my leaky memory but I do not remember exactly
when I had it installed or distupgraded. If my wetware serves me
right, my path of installation was, first an installation of Debian,
then a conversion to Devuan. For some reason, both debootstrap and the
Devuan installer did not work, so I had to resort to install Debian
first.

I am attaching a screenshot that I scaled down by 25% to save space on
the servers. It is clear something is not not well understood with my
setup.
