Eeek! Are you using Jaunty? If so, maybe it&#039;s a bug? See here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gconf2/+bug/328575

If so try this command in the alt+f2 &quot;Run Application&quot; instead: &lt;code&gt;gnome-terminal -e &quot;sudo -i&quot;&lt;/code&gt;

(I&#039;ve had to do reinstalls a few times now).</description>

		<description>@Oriol

alt+f2 is not a terminal, it&#039;s a &quot;Run application&quot; applet. To open a terminal in Ubuntu Linux 8.04 access terminal via your Gnome menu like this:

Applications -&gt; Accessories -&gt; Terminal

As mentioned, alt+f2 is not a terminal, but you can access terminal after the alt+f2 combo by typing &lt;code&gt;gnome-terminal&lt;/code&gt; in the available text field (that you&#039;ll see when the &quot;Run Application&quot; applet opens up).

I hope this helps you. :)</description>

		<description>@James Joyce - Thanks, nice to hear! Hopefully, the new Ubuntu 9.04 will have better control. I&#039;ve reinstalled Ubuntu a few times in the past because I could not figure out how to change (fix) something. Cheers to you!</description>

		<description>Thanks for your fix. My problem was a little different.  A black stripe had appeared above the background image.  I could not eliminate it via the background dialog. The top panel could appear there, but if collapsed would leave a trail of garbage.  Also, any window moved into and out of the area left a trail of its title bar. Very strange.  But &quot;killall nautilus&quot; restored my background to its proper size and behavior. I was about to re-install Ubuntu, but you saved the day!</description>

		<description>@guy man - Nautilus is like Windows Explorer and a bit more. Sure it facilitates a visual listing of files, etc. but it also can use scripts to enhance, change, etc. it&#039;s functionality. This link might provide you with some helpful information: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ghacks.net/2009/02/03/get-to-know-linux-the-nautilus-file-manager/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.ghacks.net/2009/02/03/get-to-know-linux-the-nautilus-file-manager/&lt;/a&gt;

Hopefully this answer helps you. - Cheers!</description>
