GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 312814
gdesklets should care about /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop

Version details: 0.35.2 Hello, If this option is disabled, gdesklets should use the root window and not the Gnome background image for pseudo transparency
gDesklets neither uses the root window nor the GNOME background image for pseudo transparency. It reads the reference to the background pixmap from a XAtom property on the root window (_XROOTPMAP_ID). It's GNOME's or other desktop environments' task to make this XAtom point to the correct pixmap on the X server.
