One thing that may be occurring is that another program has hold of your root window (thats essentially the background). I have seen that before although not with quite the same symptoms. ie the desktop background may in fact be "under" some other application. You haven't played with any of those programs that show a live view of space/the sky/the moon/your navel have you? -- Nick Rout
