GNOME have finally made good on their threat to remove all support for icons on the Desktop. Any files in ~/Desktop no longer produce icons on the screen. The GNOME Shell plugin that was the last thing that allowed it is no longer supported. GNOME Shell itself seems broken: what was the Shell Preferences browser page now bring up a 404 page from gitlab.
Stewart, I hate desktop icons and I hate Gnome. I am not sure how to react to your post. :) FVWM does not support desktop icons and I love it. XFCE and LXDE probably do support them, and they make nice desktops. -- Howard Gibson hgibson@eol.ca jhowardgibson@gmail.com http://home.eol.ca/~hgibson
