HI guys ,
just formatted my windows PC and installed linux for the first time. ( so I am a complete noob)
How do i make the desktop icon to show "Personal ( 2nd line) Folder" It currently only showing "Persona..."
only reason why Im asking is I have some icon of the same file 1st = 32 bit 2nd = 64 bit ... some time need to use the 32 bit copy
I haven't tried it myself, but you could append the following to your .gtkrc-2.0:
Code:
style "xfdesktop-icon-view" {
XfdesktopIconView::ellipsize-icon-labels = 0
XfdesktopIconView::label-alpha = 0
}
widget_class "*XfdesktopIconView*" style "xfdesktop-icon-view"
Please note that
Code:
XfdesktopIconView::label-alpha = 0
handles the transparency of the icon text, so you can delete it f you don't like the effect it has on your desktop :-)

sorry but where do i find the .gtkrc-2.0 . doIi type that into the terminal
You could try typing the following in the terminal (make sure the prompt says "~"):
On a fresh install that file should contain
Code:
gtk-menu-popdown-delay = 0
gtk-menu-bar-popup-delay = 0
gtk-enable-animations = 0
gtk-timeout-expand = 0
Then copy the lines from here and paste them (ctrl+shift+v) after the above lines.
When finished exit nano (ctrl+x) and confirm overwrite. Log off and on again to see if things are as you like.
