How can I delete the `home.desktop` file on the nx Desktop? I'm the owner and permissions are -rw-r--r-- but when trying to delete it I get `rm: cannot remove ‘home.desktop’: Operation not permitted` (sudo doesn't help either).

It's not really critical. I just reshuffled some partitions and the file ended up on one that no longer runs under nx. And now I'm curious... ;-)

Many thanks,
Markus

Its the "i" attribut which is set. You can remove it with
sudo chattr -i /home/$USER/Desktop/home.desktop
Which will flip the immutable attribute, so you can then rm /home/$USER/Desktop/home.desktop

Me too...but generally it centers around how little I know.
