Thanks @vanvugt, so there are 3 UI ways of hiding the desktop icons, but only one works:
$ gnome-shell-extension-prefs ... then switch off the desktop-icons extension. (Nevermind that gnome tweaks, under "Extensions", listed the desktop- icons gnome shell extension as disabled.) The bugs are then the mere existence of the other two UI ways of hiding desktop icons. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1880243 Title: can't hide desktop icons neither with dconf-editor nor with gnome- shell-extension-desktop-icons To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons/+bug/1880243/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
