OK. Nice. Thank you !!!
Now, after your answer, I made a new search on google with .gnomerc and
I've discovered than /etc/profile and ~/.profile and not loaded at the
gnome session startup. So, when theses scripts are really necessary ? I
don't understand why setting environment variables there is not ok...

I've discovered the --geometry option. But I have problems with it. Is
it ok on all applications ? I suppose it should be ok with nautilus and
"classic" gnome applications but I have many problems...

Thank you very much.
