Comment 57 for bug 44082

For me it happens without ever touching the resolution settings. I have a notebook with an external display attached (permanently!). The resolution is already set correctly at the GDM login. But after login, the applets are mixed up (panels are at their correct locations most of the time). This even occurs if I "lock" them to their positions.

As already found out, if I use "expanded" panels, there are minor mixups such as two applets which switched locations. But I recently changed to "non-expanded" panels and I got a nice puzzle game after the last reboot... all applets where mixed wildly.
