This has just started happening with me on Ubuntu 14.04, after I updated my HWE stack. My laptop has an HDMI attached screen above it, so I use 1-vertical screens, 2 wide, which gives me a 2x2 set up.
When my screen locks, random windows will move themselves to a non- existent vertical screen below my laptop's screen. To get them back, I start CCSM, choose General Options, then choose Desktop Size and change my vertical desktop size to 2, drag the windows back to a visible workspace, then change my vertical size back to 1. I can also use the methods described in this bug report. If I leave my vertical size at 2, the windows still jump down randomly and I then have to add a third layer to my vertical desktop size to get them back, so the desktop size itself appears to be irrelevant. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/919437 Title: Lost window, cannot get it back.
