Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here.
I can reproduce this on an upgrade from Xubuntu 10.10 to Xubuntu Natty beta2. I am able to create folders on the Desktop, but not files. Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better! ** Changed in: xfdesktop4 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: xfdesktop4 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/754595 Title: Cannot create an empty file on the desktop -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
