Do you still see the desktop, ie the folders or nothing at all?

in the first case:
try something like :

ln -s /mnt/card/usr/share/applications/* /usr/share/applications
ln -s /mnt/card/usr/share/pixmaps/* /usr/share/pixmaps

in a shell and restart X ( Control - alt bs to kill it)

in the second case:
do you you matchbox and openbox?
try to run matchbox-desktop
(which is normally loaded from /usr/bin/mbsession script inside the /home/root/.xinitrc script
