Every time I run an app that changes the resolution (mostly games but other apps too) all the icons on my desktop disappear and I have two scripts I run to fix it. #!/bin/bash killall -9 kdesktop #!/bin/bash kdesktop Not sure why this is happening it does seem to be related to TDE. I am running 14.06 on Debian Jessie.

Hi John,
Aye, I've seen this before. If you run penguin command in full mode, that sometimes happens. I don't know if it's the application or a fault in the x server. I have seem the same thing happen in MS and apple too.

Thanks for the reply. I don't think it is the Xserver as I have tried KDE, Mate, and XFCE on the same machine and this doesn't happen to them. Can't speak to Windows or Mac as this is at home and I am 100% Linux at home. I did recently switch graphics cards from AMD to Nvidia but acceleration seems fine. I can run Mesa and Vulkan apps with no issues. I have noticed if I have to run these scripts several times over the course of a day the system does get a bit flaky and I have to restart the Xserver. If I don't have to run the scripts I have no trouble with stability over several days, don't usually leave it running longer than that.
