(Sorry I no longer have the entire thread, but I'm pretty sure you said
you use GNOME.)

Assuming you're using GNOME's Metacity window manager, try this:

  $ gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/general/reduced_resources \
                --type=bool true

If you have GNOME's gconf-editor installed, it'll let you do the same
thing. (See: Applications -> System Tools -> Configuration Editor.)
