What am I missing in order to keep KDE from moving the icons about?

Sounds like Susewatcher

I'll buy that :)

unless you don't have a routine that does check for updates on a regular basis ( cronjob or script or whatever )

Hmmm... don't have one [yet], but I may resolve this by year's end

kill it ... After that your icons *should* stay where you put em...

Hmmm again: does Susewatcher also do nice things like notice that I've plugged in a USB device and toss an icon for the device onto the desktop? If so, I'll be in a bit of a bind because that is a feature I'd like -- where should I go to "configure" susewatcher to do what I want and leave the rest alone? [or if such a configuration doesn't exist, would this be the place to request it since (obviously) this is a suse-specific program?] -- Yet another Blog: http://osnut.homelinux.net
