On the desktop display [xfce] the background is an "F" with

Can anyone tell me where to find the image file so that I
can change it?
Right click on the desktop and select "Change Desktop Background"
That won't work with Xfce. You'll need to go (in the menu) to Settings
--> Settings Manager and then choose Desktop. You should be able to
find your way from there.

Yes, I know that and I have done so this morning but
I find that function erratic for whatever reason, yesterday
it didn't work? This morning it does, and I have had that
problem on several computers set up similarly?
I would prefer to change the file that makes the image
if possible. But I don't know it's name ...
Right. Well, you should be able to find the name of the image from that
dialog. Barring that it lives in /usr/share/backgrounds/images/. I'd just
tell you the name but I'm using Rawhide with Fvwm (fvwm-crystal) so my
system is quite different from yours at the moment.
HTH, Myles
Ok, thanks much, I will go from there.
