So I logged out & back in. Now I have the system tray, with the main menu, time... but there are no icons on my desktop, and nothing happens when I right-click on the desktop. What do I do? There are 3 different .gnome folders under my user, and I don't want to just start renaming them... I am running Lenny, updated earlier today.. When I logged in under another user, using gnome, the icons were there.well, it was either the reboot, or renaming .dmrc in my HOME folder. All of my desktop icons are back.. I renamed .dmrc and the new one created is 26 bytes, the old one is 24
$ dir .dmrc -rw------- 1 me me 26 2006-07-04 22:35 .dmrc $ cat .dmrc [Desktop] Session=default $ What's "dm"? Desktop Manager?
bytes. the only difference I can see in those 2 files is the new one has an extra empty line at the top. I hate rebooting... "your /dev/sda6 has not been checked in 70 days, forcing a check now"...
