Bug#279993: kwin: Desktop Icons Change Position on Login
Package: kwin
Version: 4:3.3.1-2
Severity: important
Hello!
Whenever I start KDE, the icons on the desktop move one snap on the grid
updwards until eventually reaching the top of the screen. This is
independant of the position of the Kicker panel as happens both when the
panel is on top of the screen and on the bottom. Using "Configure
panel..." to change the position of the Kicker panel also triggers this
bug. This is highly annoying as I have to manually reposition the
desktop icons _everytime_ I start KDE.
This bug has been reported to upstream
(http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47627), but I'm submitting a
separate bug report to Debian because I hope to see this fixed before
the next KDE release which will take quite some time.
I'm marking this bugs as important (4) because I consider this to be a
huge usability problem.
Thanks for looking into this.
