The same thing happened to me after I upgraded KDE to 3.5.9 while still using Kubuntu 7.10 (deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-kde-3.5.9/ubuntu gutsy main)
The above solution doesn't seem to work for me though: If I use "System Settings > About Me > Paths" to update the path, it is written into ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs correctly. After restarting KDE the path is still present in user-dirs.dirs, but "kde-config --userpath desktop" reveals that my Desktop still points to /. Also of course my Desktop shows me icons for my root-directory. My next approach, namely to put the line "Desktop=$HOME/Desktop" into the [Paths]-section of ~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals doesn't solve the problem either. -- Desktop displays root directory (/) after upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/174532 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is subscribed to kubuntu-default-settings in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
