I've now done 15 tde-trinity installs on 5 different computers and now 
realize the icons on the desktop do not update until after I've 
restarted the desktop and now I've only deleted all the home system 
files just the one time, now I delete the system cache and old kde files 
created by previous kde install and restart the desktop.  Or even easier 
after installing trinity I delete system files before first boot to 
trinity desktop and then reboot to the new trinity desktop and remove 
old kde packages. So for me the icon problem is solved.
