Considering that this has existed since 11.10, is there an actual
timeline when this will be resolved?  It's absolutely maddening,
considering it does it on a 5760x1200 3x24" secondary display head,
_every_time_i_use_nautilus.  It literally lights up my entire room and
causes seizures if not prepared.  Even better when the crappy ati driver
is flipping out and strobes with nautilus open!

At this point I'm interested in recompiling it as dueller mentioned to
make it stop, but not if it breaks integration.  I'd simply use dolphin
or gnome commander if they were better integrated.  Seriously guys, what
is the hold up with integrating this in a mainline release?  It's one of
the more painful issues of trying to use dual framebuffers with modern
ubuntu.

  If enable dual head mode (two X screens), the second monitor went

  And if kill the nautilus process, the desktop showed up normally on
  second screen.
