I noticed there is a file in the user's home directory in .nautilus/metafiles/x-nautilus-desktop:%2F%2F%2F.xml that list the name of every file on the desktop and it's icon_position. I noticed this file still had the Computer icon in it and the icon_position of "64,22" even though it doesn't get displayed. If I change the position of Home to be "64,22" in this file it works. Of course if I display my Computer icon again it would lay over top of this one. I wouldn't want to do that of course, I was just experimenting. Now the question is what generates the x-nautilus-desktop file and how can I change the default behavior? I'm guessing I can't unless I want to copy a modified version of this file to everyone's home directory when their account is created - and I won't bother with that for something this trivial. -Ron Ron Salyers wrote: > When I right-click on the desktop and choose Clean Up By Name, what does > it run?
