	In KDE you can control positions where windows opens. In window menu 
(accessible by pressing Alt+F3 or other combination depending on your 
configuration) click "Advanced -> Special Window Settings" or "Advanced -> 
Special Application Settings". There you can set almost everything for given 
window or application including its exact position on the screen when it 
opens.
