How to do this will depend on what version of Gnome you are running.

Gnome 1.4: I think it was an option available through Nautilus ->
Preferences -> something.
Gnome 2.0: not sure.
Gnome 2.2: gconf-editor -> desktop -> gnome -> background -> find
the key called "draw_background" and unset it.
Gnome 2.4: as Gnome 2.2

Gconf-editor comes with a warning about "this may mess your settings".
It never has messed mine up, but I suppose it might one day.
