Bug Description

Kubuntu Gutsy's KDE 3.5.8 is not able to properly show media on the desktop (CDs, thumb drivers, etc.) that were mounted before the system was started.

An example: You put a CD into the CD drive, then boot Kubuntu. The CD won't show on the desktop (but will be shown in media:/ ). Reinserting the CD is a simple shortcut, but in order to bring a consistent user experience, the link to the media should be placed on the desktop, too.
