Hi,

did anything change in the desktop-area?

After updating kde* from cvs, I found my cdrom-symbol renamed "Dateisystem". 
Trying to rename it to "Plextor" failed. 

When checking the internals of the desktop file, I found the following

[Desktop Entry]
Dev=/dev/scd1
FSType=Default
Icon=cdrom_mount.xpm
MountPoint=/cdrom/plextor
Name=Plextor
Name[de]=Dateisystem
ReadOnly=0
Type=FSDevice
UnmountIcon=cdrom_unmount.xpm

It displays [de]-name. The desktop file has the new name (is renamed every 
time), but the displayed entry is not the renamed one. 

So if I use rename on the desktop:

The desktop-file itself is renamed
The entry "Name" is changed
The entry "Name[de]" remains unchanged
The entry "Name[de]" is displayed on the desktop

So it looks like the icon rename had no effect.

When the desktop file does not contain the "Name[de]" entry, everything works 
as expected.

Regards
   Thomas
