X and Fluxbox :: Windowmanager Restart moves Workspace thumbnails

After booting a DSL 0.8.2 CD, the workspace thumbnail view thingy (whatever it's called) originally appears in the screen's lower left corner, but if I right-click on the desktop and select Windowmanager / Restart, the workspace thumbnail view moves to the *upper* left corner of the screen, on top of the X Terminal icon. I can't get the workspace thumbnail view back to the screen's lower left corner without exiting and restarting X, and I can't find anything in the fluxbox config files that sets the thumbnail's location.

A minor annoyance, yes, but I'd like to fix it. Any ideas?

Try opening up an xterm and type:

sudo killall bbpager
bbpager &
exit

and hopefully you will be back in business.

Would selecting "full enhanced desktop" in the menu work?
Or, running the "enhance" file again ?

curious..

Nope.

The problem is that the x y coordinates of the existing bbpager process get scrambled somehow when the Window Manager is restarted.

The only solution that I am aware of is to kill the process and reload it either from the command prompt, or from the Fluxbox menu item "bbpager".
