Don't get rid of hard disk icons

micder · 01-11-2005, 05:37 AM

Installed Knoppix successfully.
However I can't get rid of the hard disk icons on my desktop.
Disable icons via Control Center etc.. does not help.
Think there is some script which automatically places icons.
Anybody knows which script?

The script is /usr/bin/mkdesktophdicons which is called by /etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig (or some such)
You can either edit the latter and comment out calls to mkdesktophdicons or do:
chmod 0 /usr/bin/mkdesktophdicons
