Icons in folder view do not resists at their place, if something in the desktop folder changes. This should be fixed in KDE 4.5.3 as described at: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=227157 I've created a patch for 4.5.2, based on the fixed file for 4.5.3 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set folderview to unsorted 2. Copy a new file to the desktop folder Actual Results: Icons get rearranged Expected Results: Icons stay at their positions
