Version: 2.4.1-3
Severity: wishlist
When Nautilus is invoked under a non-GNOME session, e.g.: another
window manager -- WindowMaker, blackbox, fluxbox, XFCE4, etc., it should
*NOT* change desktop attributes, including but not limited to:
- Desktop color.
- Desktop icons.
- Creation of a "Desktop" folder.
- Screensaver.
...or other desktop environment / window manager settings.
Worse: there is no visibly available control to toggle this behavior.

--no-desktop Do not manage the desktop (ignore the
preference set in the preferences
dialog).
...
Just use this option should be ok. You can also set the gconf key
"/apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop" to false.
Both solutions should fix the bug, I'm closing it.
