I am not sure if this is a KDE issue, a Kubuntu issue or an Nvidia issue but I thought I would ask and see if anyone else has this problem. I did search the forums first for an answer.
This is a fresh install of Kubuntu 12.04, just an FYI.
I moved the task bar from the bottom of the screen to the top and then added an empty task bar (panel) to the bottom of the screen as well. The top panel is the default and contains the menu, sys tray etc.
My issue is, most of the time when I start up the computer, or even when I log out (since I always log in with an empty session) both of the task bars are floating 1/3 of the way down from each edge (top & bottom). They are not fully visible and only appear when the mouse passes over them, then they are a single bright line. If you hover the mouse just right they pop back to their proper places.
I would guesstimate that this happens 80% of the time. I have also tried to have the session saved (log into same session) to see if that matters, but it never has.
Another thing you should know, I used to have Linux Mint 10-64 bit which was built on top of Kubuntu, installed on this same computer and the exact same thing used to happen. This makes me wonder if it might have to do with Nvidia.
So... anyone have this problem? Or a solution? Or even any ideas
There are very few things that annoy me about Linux, this is one of them, some persistant bug that I just cannot find any info on. I have searched multiple forums without luck.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

I may have to upgrade KDE.
