Desktop Icons Do Not Appear on Desktop at Startup

Beschreibung

When I bootup and login all the desktop icons are missing, for example files, folders and the computer icons Trash, Computer, home, etc .... I have to log out and back in again to restore the icons.

This issue happened in a previous Trisquel version as well. Its only recently started to happen again in 5.5, probably caused by an update.

Instead of logout/login try opening a terminal and firing nautilus (it provides the desktop). Do you see anything in the logs?

Logs? Nautilus? Could you give me the code to type (well ok paste) in to the terminal.
It's baby steps I know :)

I think they pushed through an update to fix this last time.. not sure though.....

To start Nautilus, just type nautilus. It will open a file browser window as well. Did this help?

You could read ~/.xsession-errors and /var/log/syslog.

You can use e.g. the less command to do so. You can use PageUp, PageDown, Home and End buttons to navigate and q to quit, h will give you the complete less help.

i.e. less ~/.xsession-errors

There you might find something useful... or not.
