I did as you said but it has made no difference to my desktop even after

my ~/Desktop directory. On F7 there was a utility, under preferences if
I remember correctly, that I could run to set this but I cannot find
anything on my F8 install.

Hi,

Just a guess, but is it possible that this is because Fedora uses
xdg-user-dirs and you have changed the path to the desktop?

Check ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs and see what XDG_DESKTOP_DIR is set as.
