The icons on my desktop are now all the folders and files in my home folder, they are NOT simply links to the files, like symbolic links, they are the actual files, if I delete one it's actually gone from the HD, very annoying.

I had only a few icons on Gutsy before the upgrade. The desktop is behaving like a file browser or like when you click on the "home" icon.

Looked at settings for KDE and looked for obvious .kde/share/config like files that may have an answer with no luck.
