    Desktop display...icon location


    I like to separate my icons into categories.


    However, recently all icons moved to the left side

    of the screen and I can not change any icon locations.


    How to I correct this so I can relocate the icon position

    on the desktop?

    :)

    Program that saves the location of Desktop icons?

    Are there any programs that will save the locations of my desktop icons? every time I play a game or my computer goes to sleep they get all f*&^ed up and its pissing me off.

    Thanks in advance.

    It would kind of make-sense if in a game you used a lower resolution than your desktop.
    However, the sad news is that I have no idea how to fix it, whether there is a program that saves all your icon locations or why this is happening when your computer goes to sleep.

    Remove Linux Desktop Icons

    I am not sure whether this will work (Ubuntu does not have icons like that on the desktop by default), but I suggest opening the trash bin and sweeping the icons into the window showing the trash bin.
