check your dmesg and logs
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !

Well I uninstalled quick-init, preload and prelink and I still have the same problem.
I checked dmesg and didnt find anything strange.About the logs Im checking but there are a lot. Which one should I check ?

Re: Problem with Black Desktop in Xfce4
In xfce4 it is xfdesktop that sets the wallpaper and icons. You are probably saving the session and starting that session again when you reboot. You could try starting another session at next login or run
xfdesktop & in a terminal to get the wallpaper and icons back.
