Why do my desktop icons rearrange themselves every time I reboot?
How do I save, desktop icon position?

I also have had the exact same problem for the past year or so. My icons stay where I put them for a month or so and then suddenly they're rearranged all bunched up in lines on the right side of the screen. Extremely irritating, since I have them arranged spacially in groups.
My only clue is that it seems like this tends to happen after system updates – but I'm not completely sure that it is a 100% correlation.
I'd really appreciate a resolution to this decidedly "unmacintoshlike" way of working.
Awesome thread, Cyberdog and Clarus are discussing confusing icons.
