Hello,
I've migrated to Centos 7 / TDE 14.0.3. Everything went fine, apart from
one point: I am no longer seeing on the screen only the contents of my
$HOME/Desktop folder like it was before, but rather the contents of
my entire home directory.
Apparently there should be some configuration option which would allow
to define $HOME/Desktop as a starting point in place of $HOME, but so
far I was unable to locate it.
What should I change? Thanks a lot ahead for any hint!
Andy.

Please try:
$ xdg-user-dirs-update --set DESKTOP $HOME/Desktop
Read the manpages of "xdg-user-dirs-update" and "xdg-user-dir" for
more information.
