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//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 ../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 Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

When you next lgoin the desktop should be restored as you had it. It works for me anyway. I also have Kwikdisk enabled in the panel 'cause I'm too lazy to open a terminal and type "mount...etc" every time. :-) I hope that helps you. -- Charlie Edmonton,AB,Canada Registered user 244963 at http://counter.li.org I have a VISION!

[expert] Removable media icon; how to delete
Dear friends; After have disabled supermount, in the kde desktop still appears an icon with "Removable media" that is now useless. Nevertheless I can't delete it; in fact I can erase it but the next time I start kde the icon appears again. Does anyone know how to delete it for ever?
