Now, with gnome1 I could never get nautilus to work correctly, so it was not an issue. With gnome2, nautilus works correctly, but it prevents xphoon from displaying. I have xphoon set to start and I briefly see its display before nautilus starts and overwrites the root window with the solid color black. I absolutely abhor the Nautilus wallpaper and have set it to "no picture" and solid black. What I really need is the option from the old gnome desktop of "don't manage the background at all". Does anyone know how to get nautilus to not even try to do anything in the root window so that xphoon can display the moon phase for me? /Joe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-gnome" in the body of the message
