On my fairly new gnome-2.10 at home I have a wierd problem regarding nautilus.
Only when it's on do I get the right click in on the desktop which I
use mainly for changing my background.
I know the core X community ("fvwm works fine for me") will probebly
send me to -
 RTFM xsetroot but is there a way to get gnome's right click on the
desktop without Naughty Nautilus?
Lior.
