mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5 should fix the issue. mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b.fc18 mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b.fc19 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 19. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b.fc19 Package mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b.fc19: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 19 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b.fc19' as soon as you are able to.

To get this to work, I had to do this: yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing mate-desktop\* which gave me both mate-desktop and mate-desktop-libs It did not work the first way because I needed -libs. I then downloaded the rpm from the git repository and that didn't work either. But this worked. However, after logging out and logging in, part of the same problem is present. I do not get my preferred background. Instead, I get a black screen. I'm going to try to revert. mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b fix this. Please check gsettings. [rave@mother ~]$ gsettings get org.mate.background draw-background true [rave@mother ~]$ gsettings get org.mate.background background-fade true [rave@mother ~]$ gsettings get org.mate.SettingsDaemon.plugins.background active true (In reply to Wolfgang Ulbrich from comment #6) > mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b fix this. > Please check gsettings. > [rave@mother ~]$ gsettings get org.mate.background draw-background > true > [rave@mother ~]$ gsettings get org.mate.background background-fade > true > [rave@mother ~]$ gsettings get org.mate.SettingsDaemon.plugins.background > active > true All are true. I checked this after downgrade, but they should not be changed, right? Yes, those are the correct values. We did a gsettings.override for 1.6.2-0.4.git81c245b which set it to false for fixing another bug. But we forgot that ex-gnome user prefer to disable caja gsettings key 'show-desktop-icons' which also disable draw background by caja ;) In result neither caja and mate-settings-daemon don't draw the background. With mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b i revert the override. So check if those keys are 'true' with mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b .

OK. I again did yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing mate-desktop\* and logged out and logged in. This time baron@barber ~ > gsettings get org.mate.background draw-background true baron@barber ~ > gsettings get org.mate.background background-fade false baron@barber ~ > gsettings get org.mate.SettingsDaemon.plugins.background active false But when I set the last two to true, it worked properly. So I think there is still a problem. Users should not have to do this. Indeed, I had disabled the icons, which look like -- well, how to say it? -- unpleasant smudges on what is otherwise a nice picture. Can you post with mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b [rave@mother ~]$ cat /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/mate-fedora.gschema.override [org.mate.background] picture-filename='/usr/share/backgrounds/default.png' [org.mate.session] required-components-list=[ 'windowmanager', 'panel' ] [org.mate.session.required-components] filemanager='' [org.mate.font-rendering] antialiasing='rgba' hinting='slight' Btw, it views hopefully like this. mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b.fc19 has been pushed to the Fedora 19 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. mate-desktop-1.6.2-0.5.git81c245b.fc18 has been pushed to the Fedora 18 stable repository.
