>Description:
gnome-settings-daemon ignores disabling the draw_background option.  This causes gnome to change the desktop background when it is not intended or required.

draw_background is unticked in gconf-editor, it is my understanding that this should disable GNOME from drawing the background.

I use gnome-settings-daemon with fluxbox so that evolutions fonts and icons are correct.

On my setup I want fluxbox to handle the background(fbsetbg) and not gnome.
>How-To-Repeat:
When in fluxbox run /usr/X11R6/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon after a short while the desktop background changes.  (on my machine I load gnome-settings-daemon from ~/.fluxbox/startup)

I have tried enabling and disabling the draw_background option in gconf-editor - it had no effect.
