There's an option to use your homespace directory as the desktop, rather than the ~/Desktop directory. You want to re-enable the usual use of that Desktop directory. I have a "gTweakUI - Nautilus" thing in my preferences that lets me directly affect these things. It was an extra that I installed, so I didn't have to trawl through the tangled mess of the gconf-editor You could try: yum install gtweakui-nautilus Alternatively run gconf-editor (yum install it if you don't have it), and work your way into its apps/nautilus/preferences, and untick the desktop_is_home_dir key. Though, if you've wiped out your gconf/gnome files, I don't know whether you'd have to create that key, yourself. The first gTweakUI thing might be easier. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.5-76.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5. Today, it's FC7.
