I have links to locations on my desktop so that I can click on them to get to places directly. I have one for camera pics, another for movies and a few others. I upgraded KDE 4 the other day and logged into it for a little while. I'm now back in KDE 3.5 and my desktop links no longer work. When I click on them, it tries to open them with Dolphin and even asks for a password. The permissions are correct. Owner is dale and group is users. I should also add that if I type in the password, user or root, it does nothing at all. It just sits there. I thought I could just delete the old links and recreate them and get that to work. It didn't. It does the same thing. It tries to open them with Dolphin and asks for the password. Oh, did I mention I deleted my Documents folder by mistake? I thought it was a link but it wasn't. Backups are so sweet. ;-) Anybody know how to fix this? I checked the file associations options but it looks weird. No clue what was there before KDE 4 came along. Could someone tell me what is in theirs if your still works? Maybe that would fix it. Thanks. Dale :-) :-)
