Hi Just stumbled into a problem with my recent new build C7 work
station. Fully updated, gnome desktop, all was working well until I
had a play with Tweak Tool, I wanted to try some other themes for
window layouts as the default seems to not show check boxes correctly
in all situations. I haven't yet determined what is causing this but
suspected another theme may work better, as not being able to see the
correct status of a check box is somewhat frustrating. So I made and
tried numerous changes with this Tweak Tool, but only used the items
that were installed as default installed select options, no special
import of any other themes or extensions. At one point I lost the
Desktop background - cannot recall which change triggered this,
however as I have tried all the other options on just about every tab,
I still have a gray desktop. If I move the cursor to the top left
corner and it shows all the open windows, the desktop wallpaper /
background shows just fine, but when I select any window/app, my
desktop reverts to gray. I have tried resetting the desktop
background but it does not remove this aberration.
Any gnome gurus out there that can point me to the gnome foo required
to get my desktop looking 21st century and not like my old monochrome
Windows386 circa late 1980's.
Thanks Rob
Try this:
dconf reset /org/gnome/desktop/background/picture-uri
Type 'dconf help' for more information.
Tried that - it appears to run, i.e. prompt returns. No change. Logged
out and back in - no change, still gray. It has reset the background
that comes up when I move the cursor to the top left and see all the
open windows.
Gnome is SO counter-intuitive, not sure what the developers are smoking.
