[Bug 957786] Re: [nvidia] Windows keep opening in another monitor
Definitely a compiz bug. Using Nouveau and tested on Unity2D and gnome- shell, both of which do not use compiz. There are certain windows that always open in the second monitor, many of which can be seen in this video: open/save dialogues, images (via Eye of Gnome), and the system settings (not pictured). Others, such as new terminals, videos (via totem), and new text documents open in the focused monitor. This is a small sample portion of windows opening on other screens. ** Attachment added: "bug.ogv" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/957786/+attachment/2916322/+files/bug.ogv ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Description changed: I have 1 monitor and an LCD TV arranged in as a dual monitor setup with an nvidia card. Ubuntu's display preferences doesn’t recognise the monitors, so I have to use Nvidia settings. The system works but with unity 3d windows keep poping in the monitor I'm not using. It's silly. Because I only turn on the TV when I want to see video, I can't use the system unless I have the other monitor on. Because this is impractical I switched to Unity 2D were this behaviour doesn't happen. Unity 3D should to open windows in the monitor with the focus, or at least give that choice.

Unity-2D does not use compiz.

No it's useless.

[Bug 957786] Re: [nvidia] Windows keep opening in another monitor
Compiz' window placement plugin I believe does default to placing all new windows on the current active monitor. However this is a problem with the proprietary NVIDIA driver, because that's one of the only drivers that treats all monitors as a single output. Because NVIDIA does not implement the Xrandr extension properly (but most other drivers do). Please run "ccsm" and scroll down to Window Management > Place Windows. In there you will find a few options for controlling and customizing window placement. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/957786 Title: [nvidia] Windows keep opening in another monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/957786/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
