I am trying to figure out how to disable desktop icons in Ubuntu 14.04. I found option show-desktop-icons in dconf editor under org.gnome.desktop.background. Unfortunately this disables also custom background and also makes unity really laggy and unusable.

Any other suggestions?

  • So, I see that you know how to disable icons from your desktop, but what is happen to you seems to be a bug, and bugs are off topic here. See How do I report a bug?

  • You have to trust me: there is no feature in this sense. This answer works perfectly for me in 14.04.
