All my KDE4 desktops around here are in German (and they're on FreeBSD,
but that shouldn't really matter) so the translations are not exact.
Anyway, try this:
- Right-click on your desktop
- Choose "Settings for Default Workspace"
- From the dialog, select "Folder View" for the layout

After making said change in the GUI, I ran:
find ~/.kde4 -mtime -60s
to see what files have been changed within the last 60 seconds, and these
two guys showed up:
~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktoprc
~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc
