Re: [arch-general] I'm having a brain far^Hilure... I can't find the XFCE control

I know it can be done. I've done it twice, once in Xubuntu, and once in PCLinuxOS... I've managed to turn off all the other annoying desktop icons. But I cant find the control to tell it to stop cluttering up my XFCE desktop up with iconic representations of my hard drive partitions.

If you don't want anything on your desktop (including files you put in ~/Desktop) just launch xfdesktop-settings, open the "Icons" tab and under "Icon type" select "None". There you have it, and you can even restore sane permissions on ~/Desktop ;-) bardo
