It's an almost fresh install of natty (3 days). intially it happened
when compiz crashed (so i thank it was normal, as compiz crashed every
start), but as it actually happen even on "normal" boot, without any
other problems, I report the bug.

The point is sometimes, it remenber settings, and I don't think I did
anything different!

What is needed more?

This bug still happen (it was after unity --reset)

Sounds something totally related to your configuration. Could you try with a new user account and see if the issue is there. I am suggesting this because there have been no such bug report that I have seen.

It didn't happen since a month. I passed it to invalid.
