Translated to English, these are: > /desktop/gnome/background/draw_background
Leave my desktop background alone, dammit you POS! (stupidly enough, the GUI thing knows about this, but doesn't allow you to set it) > /apps/nautilus/preferences/background_set No, I don't want windows with silly backgrounds! (and no, you can't change this from nautilus) > /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop Will you _please_ leave my desktop alone you POS? (IOW, don't take over the root window) (and IIRC there's a way to configure this in Nautilus itself) > 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 ? There used to be a way, but it seems it's gone. HTH, -- Marcelo
