You are asking to have separate root window backgrounds in Xinerama mode? The Xinerama implementation doesn't allow that. Basically, it advertises one root window, so when a client renders to "the root window" it has to get duplicated on all the individual screens. I suppose you could fake different images by piecing together smaller images along screen boundaries to make a single large "quilt" to set as the background of the single large root window. Mark.
