Create "My Computer" in KDE (easy mode)

If you have a lot of partitions in your(s) hd(s) and don't like that profusion of icons in your desktop you can create a folder like My Computer by doing this:

edit /etc/skel-fix/fix and add 2 lines

Code:

sudo mkdir /home/knoppix/Desktop/"My Computer"
sudo mv /home/knoppix/Desktop/hd* /home/knoppix/Desktop/"My Computer"

Obs: Tested on Kurumin Linux. Worked fine

its good idea as i was fed up of the many many icons on the main screen. But there is another problem... some times it shows some icons on the screen but they are not actually mounted to any partition and when we click on that it displays an error message...
can u solve this problem too?

thanks a lot
