Show/Hide Desktop icons = Trash/Computer/Home;
Dconf-Editor > Org > Gnome > Nautilus > Desktop

1. Download 'gnome-tweak-tool' (Menu | System Tools | Administration | Synaptic Package Manager) and enter 'tweak' in the search box:

2. Then select 'Destkop' in left pane and slide to 'off' - Wolfman might know of a DConf tool way of removing!:
