Hello,

There is a patch in this package which works great:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+source/nautilus/1:3.8.2-0ubuntu11

I had to modify the patch slightly to avoid a compile problem:

diff debian_3.8.2/patches/ubuntu_revert_no_wallpaper.patch patches/ubuntu_revert_no_wallpaper.patch
604c604
< +    gnome_bg_set_draw_background (self->details->bg, TRUE);
---
> +    //gnome_bg_set_draw_background (self->details->bg, TRUE);

Regards,
Hannes Diethelm
