recently, on both my etch and lenny, desktop icons often disappear and

still operate by terminal commands, i wonder is there any easy method to
restart the desktop icons display and make the file browser work?

I don't see this, what desktop? gnome?

If it is gnome alt+control+back space will restart the whole of gnome...
