If you set a background color, then switch to background image, 
applets can get a "stuck" color.
Comment 1 Mark McLoughlin 2002-09-11 22:16:09 UTC
The problem is that none of the applets actually handle pixmap
backgrounds ... but there's no point in forcing them to copy from the
window if there's no pixmap actually rendered ...

I've committed this:

        * panel-applet-frame.c:
        (panel_applet_frame_get_background_string): if we haven't
        actually rendered a pixmap background then just pretend
        this is the default background. Fixes #91198.
