I can confirm that this bug still exists in Jaunty. I deleted my
Desktop folder, as I wanted my Desktop to be on a different partition
using a symlink, and my home folder became my Desktop. I also tried
fixing with gconf, which didn't work. Correcting the line in
~/.config/users.dirs.dirs did

Just did a default install on my eeepc and by default the
.config/users.dirs.dirs had everything as $HOME instead of $HOME/[sub

Hi All;
I installed a little app by the name of Ubuntu Tweak (
http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-tweak-ubuntu.html )
This is for use with Gnome. After tweaking a bit and trying to avoid the
obvious pitfalls as noted by the app creator in the app, I logged out and,
voila, I had the above problem
Hi Bryan,
I don't know about compiz but basically you need to find out where the
desktop is defined. In Gnome it in ~/.config/users.dirs.dirs as
mentioned above. If you have a .config directory, you might start
looking there. You might try grepping for \$HOME.

Gnome Thinks Home
The same happened to me. Is there any way to do it, with feisty +
compiz. For me it is not important if I have to change the desktop
folder to some other folder, but the home being shown at the desktop
means lots of loads in my system, so I just would like to change it to
any folder else. thanks
I just got it. Thank you Bob W for your advice. I just about went nuts
trying to track this one down - been at it for about 2 hours. Well... I
learned a lot in the process I suppose.
I believe I triggered it by mistakenly deleting Desktop. Nothing
happened but my very few desktop icons
I'm pretty sure this is fixed, unless someone else is still having this
issue, it could be closed.

I accidentally changed the name of the desktop folder from Desktop to
desktop. Then next time I logged in, the desktop was my home directory.
The fix it to go to edit ~/.config/users.dirs.dirs and change the line
XDG_DESKTOP_DIR=$HOME/ to XDG_DESKTOP_DIR=$HOME/Desktop. Log out
and back in.

i also have this problem. ubuntu w/ gnome system, no kde. didn't try
changing the refresh rate and all, just one day my desktop started
showing the contents of my user folder instead of my desktop folder (on
startup). clicking on desktop brings me to my user folder. Desktop
folder exists in my
I thought I might add that an acceptable fix might possibly be to make
it so that changing the desktop path in KDE doesn't effect Gnome. It
didn't effect Gnome for me in any previous version of Ubuntu.
