I have a three monitor setup, where the left monitor is positioned lower than the other two. I want to setup the monitor layout accordingly, but when I do that, some of the desktop icons are not appearing...
It looks like the icons are put on the top left of the X screen, regardless of the layout of the monitors... How can this be solved?
see this image:
where the black-yellow blocks are the icons, so the first two are off screen and the third partially... even re-organizing the desktop icons will not solve it...

Even though this is a bit old I'd like to answer this for other people who found this thread when trying to fix this issue, like me.
I found the fix is extremely simple.
- Open the file manager and navigate to the desktop folder located in your Home folder. (The file manager will show all your desktop icons there)
- Now simply drag and drop the icons you need moved from the file manager to the place you want on your desktop.
Instead of duplicating the icons, it will simply relocate the existing ones to where you want.

That fixes the problem today, but not every day in the future when say, files are created at the command-line and are hidden offscreen in the top left corner.

My solution was to create empty folders to fill the hidden space. Resize the icon to be the max size (or as big as needed), give it a transparent icon, and name it with only spaces. Then drag them into position. To more accurately place them, create a visible row of folders below the invisible ones, select them all to move them, and delete the visible ones.
Obviously, not ideal, but all I could figure out. Don't understand why icons can't appear on the primary monitor first...

sudo nautilus
Then cut all the desktop icons from the desktop folder into a folder elsewhere.
Once done, copy and drag the icons back onto the desktop and rearrange them from there.
It is isn't the best solution, but it works.

Occasionally I have the same problem. It is only a temporary solution, but here it is:
sudo nautilus
Then cut all the desktop icons from the desktop folder into a folder elsewhere.
Once done, copy and drag the icons back onto the desktop and rearrange them from there.
It is isn't the best solution, but it works.

I just installed Ubuntu 14.04, and I'm having the same problem now. Did you ever find a solution to this?

Oh... I'd have to build a little platform for my laptop to do that. :/ I'll keep looking for solutions, and answer here if I find one. Thanks.
