The same works fine if I either enable background fading or use a vertical or horizontal 'color-shading-type'. TEST CASE: 1. Press <Super>, type 'Appearance', and open the result. 2. Make sure you have a background image selected. 3. Disable background fading from the command line: gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.desktop background-fade false 4. In the 'Appearance' dialog, try to set a solid color other than black. RESULT: * No matter what color is set, the background will always stay black. To go back to the working case, run the following from the command line: gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.desktop background-fade true ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: nautilus 1:3.3.91-0ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-18.28-generic 3.2.9 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-18-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 1.94.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 Date: Sun Mar 11 09:57:16 2012 GsettingsChanges: org.gnome.nautilus.window-state geometry '927x1027+65+24' org.gnome.nautilus.window-state sidebar-width 183 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Beta amd64 (20110901) SourcePackage: nautilus UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/952084/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
