 Arrange icons on the desktop as you want them, then right-click on
 the desktop | Icons | Lock in place.

Thank you Peter, the problem is that it will not lock them in place!  They 
still keep moving up . . .

[gentoo-user] (OT) ksmoothdock quirk

2007-10-30 Thread Mick
Hi All,

I have set up a KDE desktop for my wife to have ksmoothdock at the bottom and 
the default KDE menu panel at the top.

On the left edge of the desktop I have in a column various shortcuts (desktop 
icons).

The problem is that each time the desktop is loaded and ksmoothdock is 
launched, the icons get progressively bunched up at the top of the screen, 
under the KDE menu panel.  After the machine is rebooted a few times, or the 
desktop reloaded all the icons are hidden under the KDE menu panel at the 
top.

To avoid a domestic and calls for buying an applemac for Christmas could you 
please tell me how to nail those icons on the desktop so that they do not 
shift?  :)
