Have a look at the attached file.
It shows how most things are setup the way I want, window boarders etc.
But the menu on the desktop and file exploding via Nautilus.
Any clues as to what needs changing?
(If I create a new user its all nice for them!)

Run the following command and then check nautilus to see if the theme is displaying properly .
nautilus -q

Hay, that did it! Thanks.

Running it stops right-click on desktop from working until I reopen a Nautilus window (like my home)

So, whats the problem/solution then?

In pre 11.10 versions of Ubuntu a similar problem was caused by gnome-settings-deamon. See the section on nautilus crashing at the link .
