plasmoids overlap on startup

[Jonathan Riddell]

Binary package hint: kubuntu-default-settings

On first startup the desktop and twitter plasmoids overlap on small screens. The twitter plasmoid should not be added on small screens.

Not solved just yet. Needed modifcations to ensure this does not happen an weird resolutions.

kubuntu-default-settings 10.04ubuntu14 includes a fix "Only add microblog widget when absolute screen size is >=1024x768", presumably that isn't enough for this bug?

Just checked, works like a charm. However we should keep an eye on the underlying issue. There is no reason why plasma shouldnt be able to use the additional space on a wide screen and place the plasmoid next to the folderview...
