Hello list,
I'd like to display only specific device icons on the desktop. The usual way to activate the device icons is right click -> Configure Desktop -> Behaviour -> Show Device Icons. That work's fine.
Now I would like to enable only specific devices to be shown on the desktop, eg. if one enables show mounted partitions is there a way to choose the partition which should be displayed?
And if so, can one also change the name which is displayed on the desktop?
Thanks for any hints.

Try the following Rightclick on desktop Select "create new device" Select the type required (hard disc) Enter the appropriate information.
Thanks for this hint. That forks fine. But I have still the problem to display hotpluggable devices such as memory sticks or usb hard disks which have more than one partition. In my particular case, I'd like to display an icon on the desktop only if the usb disk is plugged in. The problems occurs if I only want to display a certain partition on the desktop instead all four of them. I found the following config file: $HOME/.kde/share/config/kio_drivesrc I guess it is connected to the display of specific device icons, but I have no idea how to modify it ... Thanks again for any ideas... Darko
Andrew
