delete the home folder and trash icon
How I delete the home folder and trash icon of the desktop?
|
rt-click on it and select "move to trash"?
Then "empty trash"... but wait: you've just deleted it! look in ~/.Desktop perhaps? |
Of course ;)
Home icon: the option is disabled. Trash icon: the option not exists. |

The folder .Desktop is not available. Has to be some configuration of the system. Thanks by you interest.

On my Opensuse 10.3 I have not the Home icon on the desktop, but in the bottom panel only. Anyway, they are stored in directory $HOME/Desktop and are those files with extension .desktop. If you want to remove the trash icon, I suggest to do simply
Code:
cd ~/Desktop |
:(
How can they appear in my desktop having the same version?, openSUSE work of very different ways in each installation and computer. The files .desktop are not available. I will leave it just as comes, but seems interesting to understand this. |

Yep, I thought .desktop was there by default in KDE. And this is not distro-specific. The OpenSUSE DVD has the option to install gnome, however.
In gnome there is a file called "Desktop" sitting in the user home directory. But you should go to Applications-->System Tools--->Configuration Editor ... instead. |
solved
That's right, I did not mention the desktop environment, sorry!
Fine!, I found the solution in /apps/nautilus/desktop/trash_icon_visible key of GNOME Configuration Editor. Thanks to all. |
moo hahahahahaha! All us bigwig experts!
:o It took 9 posts... oh boy. :o colucix: well done. I thought I was able to delete them, but now realize that I was using a launcher instead. Hmmm... mine's using the wrong trash icon, all the others follow the theme but that one. Oh well - disable. |
