Re: E and Gnome

->  I love E lots so I hope there's a way to fix this minor annoyance.

buttons are part of a theme - if you change themes e will foget if the
buttons are to remain visible or not.

you could edit the theme itself and remove all the button defs from
buttons.cfg if you never want to see them ever again, or use a theme
that doesnt have buttons.

also use snaps from ftp.enlightenment.org/pub/enlightenment/daily-snaps/
They are ones I know work. E will automatically turn of icons when you
iconfiy if it detects the gnome pager - if the gnome pager goes away E
will display the icons again. It will still display icons if you have a
panel and no gnome-pager because otherwise there is no easy way to get
your iconified apps back. (ok there is - middle and right button ont he
dragbar - but if you turn the dragbar off you cant get those menus)
