Can't move desktop icons

Aug 25, 2005 7:34PM PDT

I just did a yum update on an FC3 system. Now I can't move my desktop icons to where I wan't them. Can only line up vert or horiz or align to grid. They will also sort based on a criteria (name, size, type etc.) but positively will not allow me to drop them where I want them on the desktop. Any ideas? TIA

BTW in Gnome , the icons can be moved so it's definitely a kde thingy.

Gnome + KDE

When installing SuSE Pro9.3 It seems you can install KDE or Gnome or both. Is there a potential problem with installing both or is one easier to use than the other ?
Yeah I'm new and I've tried to read the ebooks I could find but none really offer a definitive opinion.
Thank you
