Kopete help?

There used to be an option, back in the day, where one could make Kopete start (or come up when clicked on in the system tray), to make it come up on the right-hand side of the screen, or the left-hand side of the screen. That option is no longer there, or I'm not finding it. Currently, it comes up on the left-hand side of the screen, which is not productive for me; I need it to come up on the right-hand side of the screen, being anchored at the bottom of the screen, to the top of the task bar.

What I am finding, is this in ~/.kde4/share/config/kopeterc:

Code: Select all

[General Options]
--->Geometry=272,674
--->Height 1024=674
--->Position=0,27
ShownIdentityId=MEFi3dV9Cg
State=AAAA/wAAAAD9AAAAAAAAARAAAAIsAAAABAAAAAQAAAAIAAAACPwAAAABAAAAAgAAAAIAAAAWAG0AYQBpAG4AVABvAG8AbABCAGEAcgEAAAAA/////wAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHABxAHUAaQBjAGsAUwBlAGEAcgBjAGgAQgBhAHIBAAAA8v////8AAAAAAAAAAA==
ToolBarsMovable=Disabled
Width 1280=272
WindowState=Hidden

I am assuming that the lines I put with the arrows would be the place to set this now. However, I recall very little of how to make this work. Can anyone tell me how to set those lines so that it would come up on the right side of the screen? Or, would I just need to switch the "Position" line around to "27,0"? This is on a monitor with 1280x1024 resolution, if that helps.

Edit: Just tried switching the two on the Position line, and it did not work for when I first load Kopete, but it did work for when I click it up from the system tray.

Edit2: Nope, it's not even working on that. It's only *sometimes* working, depending on what other windows are doing on the desktop.

Thanks.

Uh I don't use Kopete at all so I will not be useful to you here.

Anyone else? Thanks.
