When I right-click on my Lucid desktop, the context menu does not appear. I mean the menu with options to create a launcher, change desktop background etc. How can I get it to work?

Install gtweakui Install gtweakui

Then goto System > Preferences > gTweakUI-Nautilus.

Under the Desktop, check Use Nautilus to draw desktop.

Alternate Way:

  • Press Alt+F2 and type gconf-editor and click run.

  • Navigate to apps/nautilus/preferences on the right side you will see show_desktop be sure you have check mark there.

  • You can execute the following command in terminal instead,
    gconftool-2 --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop --type bool 1

  • This will enable right click in your Desktop.
