Comment 4 for bug 705234

thanks a lot for these tests !
so it seems only Compiz is concerned by this problem.
where are your other desklets ? I think that maybe they overlap on startup
(because the screen size is not correct before Compiz has fully started).
Metacity probably starts faster, that would explain why the problem doesn't
occur with it.

> After the dock starts the desklet's position is set to x=-623 and y=1.
