Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
When booting into Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10, the desktop icons do not display consistently. The icons I created on the desktop do not show up. This happens on my desk and lap top computers (see specs below). If I logout and back in the icons appear, sometimes. This is not affecting the upper and lower panel icons, just the desktop. The background image is always correct. If I set login for Xclient script I have the same problem. If I set default to either Gnome or Xclient in System/
I get no replies from the forums regarding this issue. I have posted my situation several times.
The desktop was originally the beta Intrepid and I updated through the final release. The Laptop was a clean install of Intrepid.
Any info you need? I do not know where to look in the system to correct this lack of the setting "sticking".

thanks for the report, could you attach your ~/.xsession-errors file to the report? do you get the same with another new user created on your system?
