) with the current State (so that I only have 1 large vdi-file instead of 2, and that the 'current state' is also the only state)
Right click on current state (changed)
Select 'Discard current snapshot and state'?

And after this I have no more snapshots AND I haven't lost any data?
DON'T do that. You WILL lose you latest change made after the snapshot. This was what I've done, whcih was the reason I went after documentation for clarification about this snapshot mess. What you should do to merge the snapshot into the VDI is:

- Right click on the snapshot (Snap1 in your case)
- Select Discard Snapshot (Ctrl+Shift+D)

That's it

Changing Background GWorkspace

GWorkspace application in GNUstep, is like the equivalent to Nautilus under GNOME. It has interesting features that I'm beginning to love, right now I believe GNUstep is for UNIX-geek-old-fashioned. Here is the screenshot for changing the background image, you need to go to Info->Preferences->Desktop (drop down) then click Choose button for search the image. I'm running GNUstep compiled in Ubuntu 10.04 and the image comes from the folder / usr/share/backgrounds/ Another really cute functionality of GWorkspace is start applications from their installation folder, you need to open the viewer from menu View->Viewer and go to the installation application folder (in my case compiled from sources: /usr/local/lib/GNUstep/Applications ) then a double-click starts the application (*.app)
