Description Bas Mevissen 2002-08-11 19:18:12 UTC 
Hi,

I selected a background image by pressing right mouse button on root window 
and select Change Desktop Background. This image appears when I login, but is 
overwritten by the Nautilus background (a blue solid by default).

What is going wrong here?

Bas.

Forgot to say that the preview in the window where you can set it up (named 
"Background") is OK.

IMO it is really Nautilus that overwrites the setting, even when "Use GNOME to 
draw background" is enabled. I have the option "Use Nautilus to draw the 
desktop" enabled because I want the icons om my screen.

What window manager are you using?
Comment 3 Bas Mevissen 2002-08-14 07:32:34 UTC 
I use sawfish from the RH 7.3 distro.

BTW. in ~/.gnome/Background, I don't see a way for GNOME to determine if it 
should use a background picture or a (solid) fill.

Well,

This bug was reported ages ago and nothing was done to it. 
So it is of no use to leave it open.
