Ubuntu 9.10 "Keep Aligned" Bug

Asked by roxat

In Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic) right-click the desktop and uncheck the "Keep Aligned" checkbox. Then reboot. Now the Keep Aligned checkbox is checked again. Keep Aligned automatically reverts to the checked state. I didn't have this problem with Ubuntu 9.04.

Why can't I permanently uncheck the Keep Aligned checkbox?

If you search Ubuntu Forums for the term "Keep Aligned", you will find several discussions about this bug, some dated almost 6 months ago. As yet no one has offered a solution.

Several people, including myself, are very irritated by this bug. I want to custom-arrange my desktop, and not keep it aligned to a grid.

Could someone from Ubuntu please respond to this post, and hopefully, offer a solution. ? !

Thanks
