Description Daniel Nicoletti 2010-12-06 15:03:42 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.4) 
OS:                Linux

After a few logins an artifact like a folder appears, but it's not a widget.
The attached screenshot shows the artifact drawn on my desktop and the bouncing ball was added after it was shown.
I removed the .kde folder and it went away (I think removing plasmarc had the same effect), it's the third time this happens. As you can see there are only a few widgets on the desktop so I really don't know why that thing appears.

And it can't be removed as it's not a widget.

I have to others computers with pretty much the same setup and this does not happen. My guess is the monitor resolution which is 1920x1080, since all others are smaller, and this artifact always come with this size.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Remove .kde, first login is fine, second too... after some logins it appears.

The image was too big to attach.
