Several time now when logging in after a boot my $Home directory have been displayed on the desktop.
This happens because my $HOME/Desktop directory has disappeared, resulting in XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop" being changed to XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/" in .config/user-dirs.dirs
Recreating the Desktop directory and resetting the XDG_DESKTOP_DIR value fixes the problem, but I don't understand why it is happening in the first place?
In the log I am seeing this:
Code:
/home/dave/Desktop was removed, reassigning DESKTOP to homedir
immediately after:
Code:
Starting GNOME Shell on X11...
Reached target GNOME Session Manager is ready.
Any suggestions as to why this is happening would be welcome.
Thanks.
