All, Sorry to reopen this bug but it still exists in precise. I've attached a simplified patch that has sorted out the issue for me. It's not for inclusion but it's probably good for a quick lead on what a good solution would be. Also this handles both the initial geometry calculation when the

I think I spoke too soon when I said that a recent update had addressed this issue for me. I believe I had symlinked my patched build on the weekend and then did my test on Monday without realizing. Upon an actual update it appears that this is still an issue, though I have yet to try the linked

Gerry, With the latest from Oneiric I can't reproduce this issue. The panel resizes properly on both screens in my setup. Fully realizing that's not super helpful in determining what actually resolved this issue for me, you can probably safely close this bug. Thanks for all your help and do let

Gerry, My sincerest apologies for replying so slowly. I hope to give Alberto's branch a try tonight or this weekend, though I should note that with the most recent update to the panel I don't believe I've seen the same issue (part of the reason for my slow reply). Either way I'll post back here

Gerry, Screen resolutions when plugged in are 1920x1200 and 1600x900. As for the compositing manager I'm relatively sure I don't have one running. All the notify-osd popups lack transparency of any kind and I'm using xmonad as my window manager, but I'm far from certain. I wonder if there's

Attached is a working patch for this issue which assigns a screen value to the instantiated Unity2dPanel which is then used to determine the panel's geometry in place of the widget itself. A few notes: 1. this patch was created against a clean branch from lp:ubuntu/oneiric/unity-2d, so I'm not

One additional note with regards to the attached patch. On screen resize it will resize based on the original screen which is only bad if the panel changes screens (I'm not clear if this is a normal use case). It appears, just from the looking at the source that

I'm not sure if it was clear from the above but I *do not* have this issue on boot. Only when I attach an external monitor to the VGA port ( I have not tried the display port ). Hopefully I'll scrape some time together tonight to give you the aaport output (new to the tool). -- You received

Robert, I don't have the linux-lts-backport-natty installed locally so the tool won't let me submit any output. I'm seeing this bug with a 64 bit install of Natty on my t420s, but I wasn't able to sort out how to add the vanilla install/kernel as an affected package as I mentioned earlier. Sorry

I should note at least two more things: 1. I am running Natty, not using the linux-lts-backport-natty package, but I had a hard time figuring out how to apply it to the larger project. If someone could do this I think it would be helpful. 2. After a suspend and wake the laptop screen flickers

I'm having similar problems with my t420s with the intel integrated video, though it only happens when I attempt to connect an external monitor. The failure is intermittent and suspend/resume seems to clear up the issue ( reloading the module? ). Vague steps to reproduce: 1. Plug in external
