Hi,
I wanted to have icons in desktop. So I followed the tips
http://www.myoo.de/xfce/index.php/Tips%2C_Tricks_and_Howtos#How_to_get_Desktop_Icons_in_XFCE4
So, I downloaded idesk (.sf.net) and I followed the usage section of web page.
My .ideskrc and .idesk directory are:
$ cat .ideskrc
table Config
FontName: FreeSerif
FontSize: 8
FontColor: #ffffff
Locked: false
Transparency: 150
Shadow: true
ShadowColor: #000000
ShadowX: 1
ShadowY: 2
Bold: false
ClickDelay: 300
IconSnap: true
SnapWidth: 55
SnapHeight: 100
SnapOrigin: BottomRight
SnapShadow: true
SnapShadowTrans: 200
CaptionOnHover: false
end
table Actions
Lock: control right doubleClk
Reload: middle doubleClk
Drag: left hold
EndDrag: left singleClk
Execute[0]: left doubleClk
Execute[1]: right doubleClk
end
and:
~/.idesktop$ ls
home.lnk
~/.idesktop$
cat home.lnk:
$ cat home.lnk
table Icon
Caption: Carpeta personal
Icon: /usr/share/pixmaps/gnome-home.png
Command[0]: nautilus /home/xan/
Command[1]: konqueror /home/xan/
end
The tip mention the file .xinitrc. I have no .xinitrc in my system (debian). I
apply the susbtitution of xfdesktop& for idesk& in my .xsession file
cat .xsession
/usr/bin/xfce-mcs-manager
/usr/bin/xfwm4 --daemon
/usr/bin/xftaskbar4 &
/usr/bin/xfdesktop &
#/usr/bin/idesk &
exec /usr/bin/xfce4-panel
I restart my X and nothing happens.
Even I copy the file /etc/X11/xfce4/xinitrc to ~/.xinitrc and I substitute the
line of xfdesktop for idesk, I restarted my X and nothing happens.
So, the question: what I do wrong?
thanks in advance,
Xan.
