You have been subscribed to a public bug: Binary package hint: nautilus
After upgrading to Natty my background did not draw. Windows and dialogs left trails where the background should be drawn. I saw this in both Unity and Gnome Desktop. I changed from a solid color background to a gradient and an image and both of those worked fine. I put it back to solid color and had the problem again. I experimented more and found out that it only happened with the combination of two settings: Solid Color background chosen in Appearance control panel AND gconf: apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop set to false. I prefer to hide by desktop icons, and I achieve this by using the gconf setting above. I am reporting this to Nautilus because the show_desktop setting is in nautilus. This worked fine in Maverick before upgrading to Natty. I have an NVIDIA video card using the proprietary driver.
