Re: [gentoo-user] trying KDE (konsole placement)
I thought I had this one sorted, but apparently not! Essentially, I want konsole to "always" appear in the bottom right of the screen. It appears the -geometry option isn't quite implemented properly, so a user suggested to use the "special window settings" to remember the position of konsole. This worked well for a while, until I realised that these settings don't stay with what I set them to! eg. 1. open konsole and position it where I want it. 2. select "special window settings" from window > advanced menu. 3. set position to "remember", and the coords should be already there. 4. open and close konsole as many times as you want and believe that it works :) 5. open konsole, move it, then close it. 6. open konsole again. Now it opens where I last moved it to, NOT where I told it to. If I look at "special window settings" now, I see that the coords have changed!! Why? I didn't tell it to?!?!? Is this the intended behaviour? I'd appreciate any comments.
