The changes you made in control panel as root will only affect root. It's a user-specific preference--even though it doesn't appear as such. At least Gnome (for all its faults) does group such things under a "Preferences" header (which sounds user-specific) rather than "Control Center" (which sounds global--at least to me). > Thanks again for your thoughts.
