What do I edit to keep some of my partitions and drives that are automatically mounted NOT show on my desktop? I want them to mount - but just not be shown on the desktop.
EDIT: Took 3 minutes on google and its all taken care of
Thank You "How-TO Geek" !
This is the gist of it:
Alt+F2 and enter: gconf-editor:
In the Left hand tree goto Apps>>Nautilus>>Desktop
Then in the right hand window pane un-tick volumes_visible
Heres a neet little thing I didn't even know existed: tick computer_icon_visible and you get a little computer icon on your desktop instead of numerous partitions and drives all over your desktop Looks much cleaner!
