desktop

[John Salamone]

hi,   I do not know how or what happened but I lost the icons from my desktop. I was logged on as root and mistakenly hard booted my computer. When I logged back on my desktop icons (root's home, start home and trash) did not appear. I did have icons on the bottom of the panel, which would normally be there.   Can someone help me out with what I can do to fix this problem? Also, is there a log I can look at to see how this happened? Your help would be greatly appreciated.   Thanks!!
