Hi, Thanks for providing more information. I don't think the directory is the problem, it exists on my system too. I think it fails to parse something in your ~./gnome2/backgrounds.xml file. Can you attach a copy of it to the bug report? It would also be interesting to know if it crashes with the new appearance preferences in 2.20, you could try the version from experimental or wait for it to hit unstable/testing. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22
