I think that's ROX-Session's setup script, I vaguely remember changing
it when I resurrected the C version. I changed it because fixed drives
don't have the same sort of significance in *nix as they did in RISC OS.
The user's home directory is likely to be far more useful in ROX and
doesn't that get put on the pinboard by default? So putting it on the
panel would be redundant. As for optical drives and floppies (who still
uses floppies?) they're better handled by DevTray or my Media applet.
