Hi all,

When I'm doing ssh from my x86-64 Mageia Linux 1, with an Intel Graphics HD
card host to any other host (including localhost) 
and running gtk+ 2.0 apps using the ssh -X connection, then I get 
an annoying black background for the icons. I tried it in a new user
 and it's still there. However, in a new x86-64 VirtualBox VM where 
I installed Mageia 1 with all updates, everything is OK, and I
don't see any backgrounds when sshing. 

I tried starting LXDE from startx on the new user and it's still there.
 
Can anyone help?

Regards,
