Is nautilus drawing the background?

I've seen this on my laptop, though in the opposite direction:
I'll have my screen up at 1024x768, then logout & hook up to a monitor,
and go to 1600x1200
Nautilus, however, will still think my screen's 1024x768, and only fill
that with my background, allow icons in there, etc.

As windows-ish a question as this is; have you tried rebooting? In my
case, it's been some lingering process that's storing stale information.
As a less drastic approach, try killing off the nautilus processes; that
might do it also.
