Package: gnome-settings-daemon Version: 2.26.0-2 Severity: normal Since upgrading to 2.26.0-2, gnome-settings-daemon now fades in the background rather than just drawing it immediately. I find this behavior very annoying. As far as I can tell, no way exists to turn this behavior off, either, short of either editing the source (plugins/background/gsd-background-manager.c, on_bg_changed, change the second argument of draw_background to FALSE) or turning off gnome-settings-daemon's background handling entirely.
I'd really like to see some option I can use to disable this fading. Actually, I'd really like to see this disabled by default, for the same reasons that gnome-session disabled the splash screen by default, but I'll settle for an option I can use to disable it myself. - Josh Triplett -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.29-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gnome-settings-daemon depends on: ii gconf2 2.26.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libc6 2.9-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.8.6-2+b1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.12-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.80-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libfontconfig1 2.6.0-3 generic font configuration library ii libgconf2-4 2.26.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.4-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.1-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-desktop-2-11 2.26.1-1 Utility library for loading .deskt ii libgnomekbd3 2.24.0-3 GNOME library to manage keyboard c ii libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10 0.10.22-5 GStreamer libraries from the "base ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.22-3 Core GStreamer libraries and eleme ii libgtk2.0-0 2.16.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libnotify1 [libnotify1-gtk2.1 0.4.5-1 sends desktop notifications to a n ii libx11-6 2:1.2.1-1 X11 client-side library ii libxi6 2:1.2.1-2 X11 Input extension library ii libxklavier12 3.9-1 X Keyboard Extension high-level AP ii libxxf86misc1 1:1.0.1-3 X11 XFree86 miscellaneous extensio gnome-settings-daemon recommends no packages.
