2+ more multi-monitor related long standing "gnome disagrees with the x11 driver about the monitor order" bugs: * Have only a single (the internal LVDS notebook) monitor enabled. * Have a drawer placed on the gnome panel. * Plug the second monitor, everything looks sane so far: #xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 800, maximum 2960 x 1850 VGA connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 1680x1050 59.9 + 60.0 ... LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 331mm x 207mm 1280x800 60.0*+ ... * Enable the secondary monitor (e.g. xrandr --output VGA --right-of LVDS --mode 1680x1050). [1] Both top and bottom gnome panels perform an immediately jump to the external secondary monitor. * Don't let it get you down, unlock and drag the panels back to the primary monitor. * Click on the drawer on primary monitor. [2] The the drawer content pops up on secondary monitor. [+] Almost every splash-window appears horizontal in the middle between both monitors. [+] Most OpenGL games smashes a 2 monitor geometry setting so badly, that the only option left is restart the x11 server. -- with multiple-monitors, firefox menus/url history/tooltips shows up on wrong monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295192 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
