I have two related questions after updating to wheezy today. 1. Gnome classic desktop displays no desktop icons. That is, the launchers from ~/Desktop/ do not display. Is there a way to caues them to display? I have temporarily changed to XFCE and the icons from ~/Desktop/ now display properly, but I would like to use gnome-classic.
As far as I know Nautilus still handles the display of desktop icons.Try running it from a terminal. If that works kill it and run from alt-F2. I think what you should do is to go into gconf-config editor and find where that preference is set. Someone else here may remember the exact spot & the exact name of the editor. I don't run Gnome much anymore.
2. How can I examine the menu items to find where the underlying programs they call are and are named? I have not yet come to an understanding of how this part worsks.
Good question - can't help there -- Cheers Frank
