apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected trusty ubuntu
** Description changed: After updating from Xubuntu 13.10 (amd64) to Xubuntu 14.04 LTS (amd64) I have encountered a bug with my dual screen set up. Running the XOrg screen driver (xserver-xorg-video-nouveau), it is possible to place/ drag and drop files and links on my left screen desktop. This is also the desktop that contains the system icons (e.g. removable drives, rubbish bin). However, I I try to drag and drop a file or link on the right screen desktop, it will not "stick" and "fly back" to its original location on the left screen. Additionally, I noticed that, when dragging the file over the troubled desktop, the "placement squares" don't show up. They do on the functioning left screen. Although I have a NVIDIA Corporation GK107 [GeForce GTX 650] Geforce I do run the XOrg driver since it gives me the best results with the software I'm using frequently. However, when I tested this during my initial install of Trusty, I noticed that I did not encounter this bug with the proprietary NVidia 304.117 driver (331.38 did not work for me at all). Running the NVidia 304.117 driver, it was possible to drag and drop/ place files and links on both screen desktops. Also the "placement squares" appeared on both screens when a file was dragged over it. - After returning to the XOrg driver, the problem reoccurred, and - placement on the right screen was again not possible. + After returning to the XOrg driver, the problem reoccurred, and placement on the right screen was again not possible. + --- + ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.7 + Architecture: amd64 + CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' + CompositorRunning: None + CurrentDesktop: XFCE + DistUpgraded: Fresh install + DistroCodename: trusty + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 + DistroVariant: ubuntu + GraphicsCard: + NVIDIA Corporation GK107 [GeForce GTX 650] [10de:0fc6] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) + Subsystem: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd Device [1458:3553] + InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-04-22 (323 days ago) + InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140416.2) + LightdmGreeterLogOld: + ** (lightdm-gtk-greeter:1648): WARNING **: Error retrieving accessibility bus address: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ExecFailed: Failed to execute program /usr/lib/at-spi2-core/at-spi-bus-launcher: Success + + ** (lightdm-gtk-greeter:1648): WARNING **: Failed to run "at-spi-bus-launcher": Failed to execute child process "/usr/lib/at-spi2-core/at-spi-bus-launcher" (No such file or directory) + init: indicator-application main process (1682) terminated with status 1 + MachineType: Dell Inc.
