Re: How to stop desktop icons from rearranging?
The date and time was 7/1/2008 9:30 AM, and on a whim, Kenny pounded out
on the keyboard:

Hi Kenny,
If your resolution is changed, that would be a good reason why it keeps
changing. Kind of like going into Safe Mode and back.
You could try Standby or Hibernate before disconnecting instead of
logging off and make sure you're connected to the docking station before
turning it on. Then your laptop would think nothing had changed. But
if you turn it on at home, you'll have the same problem coming back in.
