As confirmed, this is still in Lucid as of 9th June. I've worked around it by adding the following to my ~/.bashrc
gconftool-2 --set /apps/nautilus/desktop-metadata/directory/icon_view_keep_align ed --type string "false" Not sure why it's a string rather than a boolean, but that's what gconf- editor said it was. -- 'Keep Aligned' option always resets to 'true' after desktop reload https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/399974 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
