Description Hal Black 2009-11-06 22:08:54 UTC
Version:           2.3.2 (using KDE 4.3.2)
Compiler:          4.4.1 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I am displaying konsole to a remote Xming server on Vista.  Using the konsole that came with Kubuntu 7.04, I was able to set the --geometry option to place the window.  Now with the above konsole version, --geometry is totally ignored.

Test case:
konsole --geometry +0+0

Expected results:
konsole is spawned with its topleft corner in topleft corner of X display

Actual results:
konsole is spawned in a "window cascade" location based on what other windows are up.

Compare to:
old konsole version:
konsole --geometry +0+0
xterm --geometry +0+0

which both place the window in the top left corner
