    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.

    Desktop icons missing?

    For some reason, between last night, when I OC'd, and sometime today, my desktop icons disappeared. I've tried downclocking to stock clocks, and enabling/disabling desktop icons does nothing. *Frown my desktop icon disappears even I've clicked "show desktop icons." :(

    I've tried restarting, it doesn't help either. *Frown my desktop icon disappears even I've clicked "show desktop icons." :(
