Doesn't change a thing, on Fedora 9.  And I have rebooted.  I've tried
something like that before, too (as posted on this list a week or so

I should make it clear that I'm not trying to hide face pictures in the
chooser, I don't want any list of names.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
