hehe... found it. it's really easy....

just for info if anyone beside me uses evo under kde
and wants to save window-positions...

when the window is open and has the position and size
you want... just right-click on the window-top-bar
and select "Store Settings"

from this moment on the window always opens as left
bevore. :)
