 Perhaps we should consider hiding the desktop link in that case...

 steps to do this for the user automatically, but the version of gosmore we
 ship right now is not very interesting so I didn't feel the need to spend
 more time on it. The new version in the 5.0 livedvd release on the other

 navigation device, so will be worth more effort.
