Bug Description

On startup, about 50% of the time, the desktop background and panels appear, but not the desktop icons. If I logout then back in the icons appear. If I stop the nautilus process then the icons appear. If I open the Desktop folder the shortcuts are listed there as they should be. I have also checked gconf-editor to see if the problem resides there, but everything is as it should be there as well.

I have Felicia installed with gnome desktop.

Thanks in advance.

i noticed that i need to open desktop folder in nautilus (in a separate window) and refresh it in order for new items to appear on desktop.
