Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xfce4-settings
Before I upgraded to 9.04 (using 8.10) I had desktop background and icons using xfce. Now upgrading from Xubuntu 8.10 to 9.04 I've lost my desktop icons. Looking at similar posts which make me a little different, I'm not running nautilus and it's not running in the background. So I'm pretty sure this is not my problem (nautilus taking over my desktop). Checking my .dmrc file I have: [Desktop] Session=xfce Also, I have 'File/launcher icons' as my selection for 'Icon type' under the Icons tab in Settings->Desktop. I've noticed that xfdesktop isn't running as a process and running this from the commandline brings my desktop background and icons to my desktop. Is there any reason why it isn't running and how can I change this behaviour to have xfdesktop run at startup? ** Affects: xfce4-settings (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: 9.04 desktop icons session upgrade xfdesktop -- After upgrade 8.10->9.04 xfce does not control desktop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/471154 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
