fbsetbg gives error whenever i startx

Whenever I startx, I get this error message from fbsetbg.

fbsetbg: Something went wrong while setting the wallpaper. Run 'display -geometry 1280x1024+0+0 -wn xterm to find out what.

This confuses me because my wallpaper is actually displayed after this message just fine.

Here is my .xinitrc which uses fbsetbg:

xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
fbsetbg ~/pics/peace.jpg
/usr/bin/xmonad
