Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
Binary package hint may be wrong, possible other candidates metacity,
nvidia-current.
When using a vertically stacked monitor layout (1280x1024 on top of
1280x800), with the primary monitor set to the upper screen.
The GNOME upper and lower toolbars (fixed size, not set to auto-hide)
are displayed on the primary (upper) screen. Windows in this screen when
maximised set their upper bound as the bottom of the upper toolbar, but
set their lower bound as the bottom of the top screen (underneath the
bottom toolbar).
Expected behaviour: either the bottom toolbar should appear on the
second (lower) screen, or windows maximised on the upper screen should
maximise only in between the two toolbars.
Actual behaviour: windows maximise to include the space under the bottom
toolbar, meaning that the active line of a terminal is hidden unless the
terminal is explicitly resized.
Other information:
ubuntu: 10.10
w/m: metacity 1:2.30.2-0ubuntu1
gnome-panel: 1:2.30.2-1ubuntu3
The multiple screens are being run using the nvidia binary driver,
version 260.19.06-0ubuntu1. This may be significant given the way it
handles X screens when multiple monitors are connected.
