Strange, fortunately never had that with TkDesk 1.2 on potato. Well
you should be able to force TkDesk to use a certain configuration.
man tkdesk says:
OPTIONS
-configdir dir
By default TkDesk reads its configuration either
from the files contained in the directory
"~/.tkdesk" (see section FILES below), or if it
does not exist, from TkDesk's library directory
(usually "/usr/local/lib/TkDesk"). This options
lets TkDesk load its configuration files from
directory dir.
Also notice:
-default
Let TkDesk read its configuration from its library
directory. This means that TkDesk will start using
the default configuration.
