apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected oneiric running-unity

** Description changed:

  I arrange non-overlapping icons on my desktop for tasks that I am working on or files I want to read later.
  When I boot the next time the bottom 'row' of icons are moved upwards, on top of icons above them, making it difficult to work with them.
  This is a 'polish' bug - reducing the predictable usability of Unity.  I can 'work around it' by moving files/folders off of the desktop but it isn't the way I find 'natural' (for me) to treat a "desktop" - I expect the things on my "desk" will remain where I left them the previous time I was working there ;-)
