After trying 7 or 8 different Linux OS I tried Elive.I found all other OS simple not with Elive.When I cannot figure out how to add a folder to my desktop or figure out how to change the desktop background,it is the OS fault not mine. fminmexico.
You're not supposed to use the Desktop for storage, that's what your home folder is for. If you want all your crap on your desktop, install a Debian or Ubuntu distro.
