   You'll have to "restart" the window server to see the change...either
   reboot, or log in as "console" (no password), then immediately
   log out.

Logging in as 'exit' with no password will also restart the
windowserver.  I also use that almost anytime the Workspace
dies for no apparent reason (though that's not happened to _me_
since upgrading to 2.0).

Later,
