It's CVS code (from last night). And as I said, I emove any coordinate from the
.directory, but it didn't change anything:
 - logout
 - edit .directory in a console and remove any coordinate info
 - login
=> problem still occurs.

Here's the debug output from .xsession-errors when trying to move an icon.
Tell me what to do to produce more useful debug output if needed.

libkonq: itemURL=file:/home/goffioul/Desktop/Software%20manager.desktop
kio (KDirWatch): KDirWatch emitting dirty /home/goffioul/Desktop
kio (KDirLister): KDirLister::updateDirectory( file:/home/goffioul/Desktop/ )
kio (KDirLister): update started in file:/home/goffioul/Desktop/

kio (kioslave): listEntries 38
