| Hi!
| Having the trashcan non-removable on the desktop seem to be a bug!
| It works here for me, but if you can't delete it directly as you
| could do with any icon: 1.Open the TDE Control Center
| 2.Go in Desktop folder
| 3. Click on the Behavior subfolder
| 4.In the Device icons tab, you should be able to turn on/turn off
| the Trash.
|
| Me too I prefer to have as few icons as possible on the desktop. I
| find it more useful to have an analog clock widget and a calendar,
| so I can keep track of my time :)
|
| Tell us if it works!

it did. i unclicked this in the rmb "configure desktop" setting -- it 
apparently didn't take. but now it did.

many thanks!
