I clicked the red [X] next to my "My Computer" desktop icon (KDE 4), and it disappeared. I'm not sure what I was expecting - maybe just getting rid of the sidebar on the icon and allowing me to pack them closer together.
In KDE4 all items on the desktop are widgets so it can be a bit confusing when you're used to a "regular" desktop.
But I think I'm going to miss "My Computer." Is there any way to get it back? I tried finding it among the available desktop widgets, but didn't see anything resembling it.
Thanks in advance for a clue!
The "My Computer" icon links to the Konqueror URL `sysinfo:/` and can also be accessed from the KDE menu Menu>Computer>System Information. Therefore, you can recreate it by going to the menu item, right-clicking it and selecting Add to Desktop. But I've attached a copy to this email since it's a pretty small file and you can just save that to your desktop :) h
