If the folder view widget has somehow disappeared, adding it again is easy. 
Right click desktop -> Add widgets -> Folder View ... configure the folder 
view to show  ~/Desktop/ , I'm afraid it'll default to home.

Using 11.3? Netbook sounds like intel gfx - and the driver is known to suck 
ass on 11.3. Disable effects or consider experimenting with disabling KMS and 
switching to the intel legacy driver.

Or you may even want to experiment with a newer kernel, depending on how badly 
you want non-crashy 3d :-(

alt+f2 -> 'kquitapp krfb'  - would probably be the cleanest way to stop it, 
but simply killing it prolly wouldn't do any harm.
