(sorry... forgot to add a subject header - here 'tis again) Hi i'm a linux newbie and just switched from red hat 9 to suse 9 and from kde to gnome (on suse even!!). anyway, i'm anal about my desktop look, layout etc and have a few questions but i'll stick with a couple of big ones for now. how do i resize icons on the desktop?? frankly they're too big (48x48) on a 1280x1024 resolution. i know you can right-click and select resize and do this manually, however this would mean i would have to do this for every icon on my desktop and indeed for any newly created ones. is there a way to just say set all my desktop icons to 32x32 (or whatever) such that this change is propagated across the screen??? i know this question has sort of been asked before but the last one was some time ago and none (as far as i can tell) have actually been answered. also, i would rather avoid having to modify gnome source and recompile which was one solution for someone's icon font size question - unless this is the only way to do it. my other question is little shorter... basically nautilus crashes a little more often than i'd like. give its close coupling with the desktop, i lose that too and effectively have to reboot. i have read that you can 'decouple' nautilus from the desktop (???). what are the implications of doing this and will i lose all control over those desktop settings that are determined by nautilus settings? i also have an issue with the splash screen not closing on logging on.... this can wait i guess.... (also an issue brought up by one other... not really answered)... i hope this isn't too long. any suggestions would be most appreciated. thanks heaps Takis _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
