I'm running KDE 4.2 under Intrepid. I usually drop my plasmoids on the lower part of the desktop and usually this isn't a problem. However, whenever I switch to "TV-out" mode and then back to normal, KDE moves my plasmoids to the upper-left section of my desktop. If I drag them beyond these "boundaries" KDE seems to have created in this area of the screen, the plasmoids snap back into that area. It looks as if KDE may still think the desktop is the size that it was when I switched into TV-out mode and thinks the plasmoids are being dragged off the desktop.

Logging out and logging back in allows me to use the entire desktop again.
