[Herts] Re: Home.desktop has no type

[Lexx]

All sorted now guys. I deleted the .kdm file in the home directory,
logged off and back on, then dragged a fresh copy from the kicker. As a
bonus I also got rid of a copy of Totem that would not close or budge
from the desktop. Job done. 

Thanks again for all the help,
See you tomorrow?
