It seems that the problem is caused by Unity changing screen parameters in the middle of a screenlets loading/drawing themselves.
There are things in the logs like: Screen geometry changed Starting unity-window-decorator DEBUG 2011-11-04 20:01:21 glib <unknown>:0 Setting to primary screen rect: x=0 y=0 w=1024 h=768 And it seems when a screenlet is loaded during these changes, it will place itself wrong. I think that the solution would be to delay starting of screenlets, i. e. in ~/.config/autostart/*Screenlet.desktop add on the "Exec= sleep 5 && python -u ..." to delay starting the screenlet 5 seconds later (when Unity is probably already loaded). If you have this problem and this solution works, please tell us so, maybe this bug can be fixed for good. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Screenlets Dev Team, which is subscribed to Screenlets. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/885322 Title: Screenlets applications moving around after a restart in Ubuntu 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/screenlets/+bug/885322/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~screenlets-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~screenlets-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
