Description Sascha Schroeder 2012-07-19 13:40:08 CEST 
Description of problem:

When arranging the Icons on the Desktop, they behave crazy after some time. After two or three reboots they arrange to the left on the Desktop; but not alphabetically or something, really randomly.

I arrange them manually, they flee and arrange themselves.

Locking plasmoids and/or locking position does not fix this. I already wrote about this on the forum and they said it would be a bug in KDE.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Arrange your icons manually
2. do not lock their position and do not sort them
3. reboot ten times; are the icons still there where you placed them or do they arrange randomly on the left??

The rights are (octal): 40700.

I use the KDE panel. I think it is the default one, I just changed the Kicker-Symbol from Mageia to KDE.

It seems this specific bug is gone even in 4.8.4. :-)
