Good to know. Some time to lend ? Disabling costs few minutes. Bringing support for someone who have never seen the Gnome sources before...some full days, weeks ? If I could do it, it would be a hack, it would be accepted in Gnome mainstream ? I don't think so... Have I to became a full Gnome programmer for just this feature ? > You can't.

I could drag that window around :-)) Is there someone that can explain me the difference between the following gconf keys or point me to some documentation ? /desktop/gnome/background/draw_background /apps/nautilus/preferences/background_set /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop The first two seem to do nothing on my setup. If there just no way to tell nautilus to use a transparent background, what's their use ? -- ------------------------------ Daniele Venzano Web: http://teg.homeunix.org
