Thanks but I go on and on the same CLI I found the command  --clearshm that 
returns : 

[laurent@linux laurent]$ 3ddeskd --clearshm
3ddeskd: unrecognized option `--clearshm'

There is no help for this option, neither for the [ --delshm        ] option.

The --fps options doesn't work for me (or I can see the results)

I think it is in the key bindings options of Xfree, I will have a look.

Sorry but that explanation is maybe confusionning you : I don't care at all 
if the background isn't updated (it is just an eye candy for me) but I would 
like to have the desktop updated with the soft in the virtual screen : for 
example, let's imagine that all the virtual screens have a soft running (i.e. 
an open widows) when I run the 3ddeskd soft. When I run 3ddesk command I see 
the pictures of these programs even if I have two or three empty virtual 
screens.

To be (hpefully) more clear, the pictures aren't updated when the command 
3ddesk is called but when 3ddeskd is called at the begining, and in between 
no update is done.

I think the solution is to "acquire" every 3or 4 seconds the different 
screens by the deamon, but it should be background work only (and not disturb 
the user)
