How do I turn off the new Nautilus Desktop?
By default, machines running the 9.3 release will present the Nautilus
file manager on startup. This normally appears as a background
window, containing icons for your home directory and Trash, and
perhaps others.
If you do not wish to run the Nautilus desktop, you may add the
following line to your .environment file.
set skip_nautilus
If you decide to set skip_nautilus, GNOME will stop taking care
of your background image unless you run:
gconftool-2 -s -t bool /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop false
This command only needs to be run once.
Even after this command, you can still run the Nautilus file manager
manually from the command line with the command
nautilus &
If you'd like to have the Nautilus file manager presented on startup
again, make sure that you don't have the 'set skip_nautilus' line in
your .environment file, or other startup files like your .cshrc.mine
file. You may also need to run the command
gconftool-2 -s -t bool /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop true
