You don't want the MSD card to show up on the desktop. If that's the case, you can do this.. Add the storage media applet to kicker, then to go to configure, then media tab and choose which ones you want to show up on the desktop. In medium type you can choose what type is chosen, when mounted or not etc. Sending images... As you can see from image 1, I don't have any of the SSD partitions (there are 3) showing up on the desktop. Everything else will automatically show up. Let me know if this is what you're talking about. We are hitting a language barrier. English is me second language, Gaelic is me first. Kate
