Package: kdebase-bin
Version: 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-6
Severity: important
Hi,
kstart seems to ignore the --geometry option. For example,
kstart --geometry 96x96-0+0 --windowclass XClock xclock
doesn't place xclock at the upper-right corner. I tried with
konsole in place of xclock, but it didn't work, either.
Regards,
Ryo

Hello
kstart doesn't have a --geometry option itself.
--help-kde is a set of options for the KApplication class (in kdelibs) that
can apply to an application's window. As kstart doesn't open a window of its
own, these options are ignored.
I'm closing the bug because there is nothing we can do ourselves. You can file
a wishlist in http://bugs.kde.org to the kstart product to add this option in
kstart itself if you really need it (but kwin window-specific settings might do
the trick). Or file a bug (at bugs.k.o too) on the kdelibs product to remove
these options when not used.
Regards
