Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Change the virtual desktop name Log out Log in Actual Results: You'll end up with the default virtual desktop name Expected Results: It should keep the name set before.
I'm wondering if it's not a side effect of thoses changes : https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdebase/kde-workspace/repository/revisions/f3f255fef1be7d36c0a6fb931a46f52178440cb3 https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdebase/kde-workspace/repository/revisions/79187a9feb1ae0a0c5f49b7669a65b3606271ea1 Regards,

No, this hasn't fixed the problem for me. What I's seeing is 1. The layout of the widgets on my "plain desktop" is now remembered between sessions. This *HAS* been fixed :-) 2. The names of the screens in the pager are not remembered between sessions 3. The "recvently used" programs in the kickoff application launcher are not remembered between sessions. Are these part of kwin? Possibly not,
You've probably a permission problem in ~/.kde This bug and the dupes are *only* about a temporary regression in kwin that was introduced when fixing a segfaulter. The problem was that kwin started to write the desktop config while it was loading it (and before having the proper values) This issue *is* fixed in branch and master ;-) Anything else (a "wider" problem, probably not even limited to a particular KDE version?) is a different bug or a system misconfiguration on your side and not (necessarily) kwin related. "What is being restored seems to be settings from a week or more ago, those settings and items on the panel and systray." There are three causes for this (depending on your issue) a) insufficient permissions (do "sudo chown -R <your_username>:<your_username> ~/.kde; chmod -R u+w ~/.kde" - NOTICE that <username> shall be your login and that ~/.kde might as well be ~/.kde4 b) ~/.kde vs. ~/.kde4 messup - ask your distro if you've got both directories c) "wrong" session configuration, run "kcmshell4 kcmsmserver" - you'll be able to configure how sessions shall be stored
