Non-gui terminal background

As you might've noticed, during the installation, the live CD version of BackTrack had a nice background for the terminal before starting the Xorg server. If you miss this background when starting your OS, there is an easy fix for it.

Start your machine, type startx and wait for your gui to load (Gnome or KDE).
Once loaded, open up terminal and type:

fix-splash

Wait for the process to finish, reboot, and enjoy the terminal background.
