Hi,
The gnome desktop insists on displaying icons in the desktop for partitions I once had but Ino longer have. The "delete" entry in properties is greyed out even for root. I searched the whole filesystem for any *.desktop file named as one of them, or containing the name of one of them: nothing found. I don't know where on earth it is getting those names from, but I want them out, and I don't want new ones to appear.
How do I delete those damm icons?
[...]
I found references in ".nautilus/metafiles/x~desktop:%2F%2F%2F.xml". I exited the session, edited the file, and logged in: no effect. I tried another time removing the entire .nautilus/* directory: no effect, the damm icons remain in the desktop; and of course, they are not in the "Desktop/" directory. And something recreated the "x-nautilus-desktop:%2F%2F%2F.xml" directory.
