All gTweakUI does is give you a different way to do the same thing that
was previously suggested in Gconf....

Right now Gconf is showing the splash screen I want (which corresponds
with my choice in gnome-splashscreen-manager).


However, all of these settings are being overridden by the settings in
/var/lib/dpkg/alternatives.

That is where the problem lies.  I have no idea how that got there and
no idea how to undo it.

Once again, all of the suggestions so far aren't helping because the
settings I'm being told to change are already where I want them.

So any dpkg gurus, feel free to speak up.  Gconf isn't my problem.

Thanks
