Upgrade broke display

[Jay Pfaffman]

I've had a similar problem where the color buttons were all gray.
Restarting xfce would "fix" it.  I haven't seen the problem in a
while, so I suspect that it was somehow being caused by nautilus, but
that could just be voodoo since I've got the Gnome support turned
off.
