Public bug reported:
In the most recent intrepid update (i.e., a package changed within the
last couple of weeks), the default window manager is getting the screen
size wrong somehow, which is causing significant problems, because
windows are being placed off of the screen.
The attached partial screenshot demonstrates the problem. In
particular, the five-panel workspace switcher at the bottom shows the
correct dimensions, whereas the transitory workspace display is showing
them wrong. Perhaps this is because it's not noticing that my screen is
rotated 90 degrees.
Also, when I hit the "maximize" button on any window, the behavior is
wrong in a way difficult to describe. The height of the window is
reduced to the width (approx, I'm guessing) of the display, and the
edges become undraggable. If I reclick, the size is not restored, and I
have to manually drag it out to full size again.
This is the first time I've ever seen behavior like this.
