This is one of the unfortunate side-effects of changing the window manager from sawfish (Gnome 1.4) to metacity (Gnome 2.0.x), which is much simpler but also less capable ... One _can_ change the window manager back to sawfish, but it appears to be a can of worms (try a search for 'gnome metacity sawfish' on Google). I haven't managed to get the change to stick between sessions yet. Alastair
