ok, i'm answering half of my own question - it raises some others though. there is an option in gconf for volumes_visible on the desktop. i set this to false and the desktop icon is gone however its still in the nautilus computer location and within the nautilus tree structure.
if volumes_visible was indeed intended to show 'volumes' shouldn't the other partitions/volumes come up? this is perhaps starting to sound like a gnome/nautilus upstream issue and not necessarily debian-gnome specific. some advice would be appreciated. Thanks again.
