Did you perhaps manually set it yourself to STOP doing that? I think there was some discussion here a while ago about dialogs that say "do this from now on", but don't <sigh>. I know that was annoying me -- I usually do NOT want to do anything automatically -- especially something like moving (or even copying) files around! Anyway somebody posted a link for how to fix that, http://linuxtnt.blogspot.com/2007/07/turning-off-ubuntugnomes-annoying-photo.html Maybe you did that? Or maybe you want to recheck the settings described there. Regards, ..jim -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-newbie
