Since we don't install gnome-settings-daemon (as we probably don't want to), we'll need to use something else to draw the background. This could be xfdesktop4 but it'll need to be patched to add an option to not show any menu on right click and other similar tweaks to lock it down. </div></div> Cheers, -- Cody A.W.
