Particularly annoying isn't it ? I delete all icons as a matter of practice since they're useless, redundant. That's what menus are for. In doin this I go into /home/<user>/Desktop an delete everything. That always worked for everything 'cept Trashcan. That I just used CC to change the path for which removes it's useless icon. Neither strategy worked for that damn "Removable media" icon tho. What did work was to go into ..<user>/Desktop, an delete all the files, includin the _.files_and .dirs_ (hidden ones). Suckr's gone, hasn't come back ;> So if you wanna keep all the other desktop icons, just try deleting the both the "Removable media" dir and the hidden one. Then log out of KDE making sure you've got your desktop like you want it, and "Save session for future logons ..." checked. On subsequent log-out's, leave this unchecked. Should get rid of that icon. -- Tom Brinkman Corpus Christi, Texas
