Hi!
In KDE3 installations, there is a Desktop folder in the home directory, which contains the app icons displayed on the desktop, e.g.,
/home/gianluca> ls Desktop/ kinfocenter.desktop Office.desktop Support.desktop trash.desktop MozillaFirefox.desktop Printer.desktop SuSE.desktop
However, in TDE the folder Desktop/ is empty. Is there another place where the app icons are stored? I would like to create a Desktop shortcut for firefox and I'm not sure whether I can just copy Desktop/MozillaFirefox.desktop from an older KDE3 installation.
Thanks!
Gianluca

Cioa Gianluca, you may need to enable icon display on desktop folder.Right click the Desktop -> Configure Desktop -> Behavior module -> General tab options.
