Description David Naylor 2009-11-19 09:58:33 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.3)
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 4.2.1 20070719  [FreeBSD]
 
OS:                FreeBSD
Installed from:    FreeBSD Ports

I have a small panel at the top centre of the screen that was the applications I use regularly.  plasma decides it likes rearranging the icons every time it starts.  I can move the icons back into place but on next boot they are rearranged.  

I've saved a plasma-desktop-appletsrc (that had the proper ordering) and restored it before KDE started but plasma still rearranges it.  

The snippet from plasma-desktop-appletsrc that has the panel with the layout I want:

This problem happens consistently.

I have the same problem. After each restart my icons on top panel are rearanged. It happens only to a few last icons though.
Upgrade to kde 4.3.4 from 4.3.3 didnt help. I use Arch Linux kde packages
