I'll explain the real situation, so you can understand what happened: - /mnt/cont is the mountpoint of an ext3 partition - / is another partition, /home/emi is in this partition. - /home/emi/Desktop is a symlink to /mnt/cont/linux_home/Desktop I had the bug with this situation. Then I moved /mnt/cont/linux_home/Desktop to /tmp , I delete the symlink /home/emi/Desktop, I made a new /mnt/cont/linux_home/Desktop, I moved the files present in /tmp/Desktop to /mnt/cont/linux_home/Desktop, and I created again the symlink /home/emi/Desktop pointing to /mnt/cont/linux_home/Desktop. I have done all of this operations using the text console. Then i log on gnome, and desktop icons had the correct behaviour on move.
I wish that you'll understand what I've done. Bye! -- moved desktop icons are copied https://launchpad.net/bugs/66141 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
