Quite so. Since nautilus is responsible for drawing the desktop icons in gnome, it sounds like it crashed or hung. Killing/restarting it would more than likely have solved it
I'm asking that at least a couple of you try the above and see if you discover the same problem. If this is a common problem, as opposed to something stupid that I did, I'll submit a bug. If you could also give me a suggestion on which bugzilla to use, I'd appreciate that as well. Thanks for any assistance.
The gnome bugzilla, module nautilus sounds a likely candidate
