----> Bug with users home directory folders appearing on desktop
with no way to remove them unless you choose to not view any folders
in the Desktop Settings config under icons. We have the home  icon
file system icon and trash can viewable with this fix. <--------

THERE IS A PROBLEM WHEN YOU CREATE FOLDERS UNDER YOUR USER DIRECTORY ONCE
YOU INSTALL THE SYSTEM. THE EASY QUICK FIX UNTIL AN UPDATE FROM UBUNTU IS
AVAILABLE IS TO USE UBUNTU-TWEAK WHICH IS PRE INSTALLED TO FIX PROBLEM

First create the standard folders you wish to use
common folders are... Document, Download, Public, Pictures, Music and Videos
Go to sytem under your start menu and click Ubuntu Tweal
Their are tabs at top, click on "Admins" then "User Folder"
Highlight enteries one by one and click restore on tab at bottom.. reboot
Done :-)

Also if you are using wine another small bug I noticed is a missing / on desktop integration.
Simply open configure wine under wine menu
click the desktop integration tab
highlight each /home/user/Document...etc link
click browse and find your directory on system directory
just double click it and that will place a / at end

This allows wine to work with your main Linux desktop and makes wine themes work.

done :-)
