This is still an issue on the latest version of Mint. I am running Mint

I second this problem. Desktop file link icons won't stay put where you put

After 2 years, this bug reappeared in Mint (seen in MATE).
That's because they use Caja for the Desktop, I suppose.

Actually I've seen that they did fix it at least on the >= 11.XX

Sadly...looks like it's not for us...(i'm still on the 10.04 and 10.10)

This has just been fixed with the latest nautilus 3.1.92-0ubuntu1 on

I have to say I am surprised to see this fixed as nautilus is said to be

It is still a minor nuisance (bug) in 10.4 that has not been fixed yet. I've

Still here in natty.
How to reproduce:
- Rightclick on desktop, set "keep aligned" to false.
- Any one of the following:
-- Click a "desktop" icon, press F5... and "keep aligned" is reset to true.
-- restart gnome-session (by logging out and back in) ... and "keep aligned"
is reset to true
And will always be an issue as far
as they will be focused on unusefull things instead of crucial ones XD
