    I would like to get rid of the trash, computer, and home icons on my gnome
    desktop. I tried

    gconftool-2 --set --type=bool /apps/nautilus/desktop/trash_icon_visible false
    gconftool-2 --set --type=bool /apps/nautilus/desktop/computer_icon_visible false
    gconftool-2 --set --type=bool /apps/nautilus/desktop/home_icon_visible false
    gconftool-2 --set --type=bool /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop false

    but this didn't work. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks for your time.
