how do i get rid of the 'home and 'trash' icons?
 

whats the location of the desktop in nautilus, and is it safe to delete the icons from the desktop? i hate icons on my desktop...how can i safely get rid of them?

I think its something like "nautilus trash:///" or atleast something along that way.

no, i think that would be deleting my trash bin, i just want to delete the icon

EDIT: and btw its 'trash:'

Oh. You get rid of them from somewhere in the menu. I googled for it and found the answer, but I don't remember exactly. Something like "System Tools" and "Applications" and then "Nautilus".

Applications ---> System Tools ---> Configurations Editor --- > apps ---> nautilus --> desktop

If you didn't find out already :)

thanks you so much...my desktop is much nicer now:)
