I have learned from "The Binary Idiot" blog, that in a multiple monitor setup it is possbile to configure the workspace behavior in gconf-editor. For the change to take affect you need to restart Gnome Shell. http://www.thebinaryidiot.com/archives/2011/11/11/gnome-shell-3-2-an

I think at the summit someone proposed an X extension that would allow us to provide "mouse walls" so you could hit the "Activities" corner on every monitor easily. Additionally, there's been some talk of getting a better window scale algorithm. (By the way, there's a small easter egg that allows y

Hi, Sry for posting this to all members, I'm not used to mailings lists and would rather prefer a forum but I'd like to share a thing with you, that bugged me in current multiple monitor setups and is imo not clearly enough described on the wiki page: http://live.gnome.org/action/login/GnomeShell/D
