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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/885989 Title: white screen on second monitor when using two xsessions Status in Nautilus: Confirmed Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “nautilus” source package in Precise: Confirmed Bug description: If enable dual head mode (two X screens), the second monitor went white after login with unity or unity-2d.
