Bug 176499 – Desktop icons in KDE move by themselves

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Rostyslav Smirnov 2007-04-29 20:17:03 UTC]

Icons on the desktop tend to move every time I boot. If icons are very far from each other they may stay put.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Arrange icons
2. Reboot

Actual Results:  
Icons have moved about.

Expected Results:  
Icons should have stayed where they were.

KDE release 3.5.5

and

seem to be similar.

I only have one display, but two panels: kicker at the bottom and taskbar at the top, and icons move upward and pile up at the top.

As you see, this is a longstanding minor, but still annoying issue. Please follow the upstream bugs.
