The times this has happened to me I've gotten things to fix up by doing the following:

1) bring up a terminal window and enter at the prompt

2) killall nautilus

you do not have to be root to do this.

I have an interesting issue. I was using KDE for a while, and later logged back into gnome. All the desktop icons were gone, but do appear in the desktop folder from nautilus. The funny part is that I have a trash icon on the taskbar/panel at the bottom. When I click it the trash opens...and when trash is closed...poof...all the icons reappear on the desktop...

what the....?

How to fix?

Thanks!
