--- Comment #163 from kdebugtrack...@gemlog.ca --- A good point Mike - I didn't do just one thing and make one change - I made many hardware changes at once. This SSD was sitting in a m/c only a few years old when its p/s died and my town is too small to have a store for parts, so I built a pc out of old ones. The KDE Neon install suddenly 'woke up' to find itself in a body composed of an old 2009 box and with an HDMI output for a second monitor instead of DVI. Maybe it's the combination and the bug is peculiar to a certain chipset + HDMI, at least for *this* bug. I have read around and seen that 'dancing icons' was caused before a couple of times by something entirely different that got fixed. I was just flabbergasted that I could make it happen by toggling the power switch on the monitor. Hard bug, b/c it is so rare. I'm not a single data point. I've supported KDE on desktops in many homes and businesses for decades and never encountered this bug until now. After reading through a bunch of similar bug reports, it seems that 'dancing icons' is more of a syndrome - a symptom like pneumonia, something with many possible causes vs a single 'disease'. Since it only effects me (in gemlog's little world, at least), New Plan: I will simply rename the icons I care about with numbers and let the desktop sort them by name and forget about it! :-) Thank you all for sharing your experiences. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
