I am using KDE 4.1. on Debian experimental. My graphics card uses the intel driver. 

My laptop comes with a 1280x800 display. When I connect an external 1280x1024 display and enable it with something like "xrandr --auto" the panel will not be properly repositioned to the bottom. I will attach a screenshot. 

I have seen bug 162856. However this here is not about resizing.

Also I would like to add that this did start to happen only in beta 2. Before, the panel was positioned correcly.
