Public bug reported:
When clicking "Arrange Desktop Icons" in XF Desktop properties, the system
icons, Home. Wastebasket and Removable Devices (I don't use the additional
"Filesystem option) arrange themselves off the screen area to the left rather
than at the top left and visible. A tiny portion of an icon is just visible,
provising a clue as to what has happened.
A workaround is to choose "Desktop Settings", the Icons tab, and un-select and
re-select the system icons. when they appear at the end (bottom right) of the
desktop, or tolog out and log back in, which arranges the icons in a
half-expected manner.
This issue may account for some reports of invisible disk mounts on the
desktop, where the mount icons may simply be off the screen.
Additionally, the icons do not sort themselves into any sensible order.
The expected action is to arrange with known icons first, followed by folders,
followed by files in alphabetical order, but the arranged order appears to be
random.
Lenovo E145, fglrx.
