Gnome Query

How do I configure GNOME (or one of its elements) so that the icons for my Desktop folder are on the right, rather than the left, after (for instance) a “Clean Up By Name” operation?

    ps: this is Gnome 2.x under Solaris/JDS

    It’s probably something which needs a few config files hacking, a chicken sacrificed and someone who knows all the secret switches in gconftool. 😉

    (Actually, I’m only half joking, if it’s even possible.)

    No secret switches for this one I’m afraid… it’s just not possible.

    So i saw; the gnome people seem even more bigoted than the mac brigade, especially regarding this topic, according to a mail thread i have found.

    I’ve had a look at the Nautilus code, which appears pertinent – it looks scary, but not impossible. Hmmm…
