Public bug reported: My system is using NVidia's separate X-screen instead of TwinView. If I click Places->Home Folder in the 2nd screen it opens in the first screen. This is 100% reproducible.
Same behaviour observed if running DISPLAY=:0.1 nautilus --browser or if running from Alt-F2 However, for gnome-terminal, running from the menus opens it in the wrong (first) screen, but running DISPLAY=:0.1 gnome-terminal or running from Alt-F2 opens it in the correct (2nd) screen. Firefox/thunderbird open properly in the 2nd screen in all cases. Compiz-config settings manager has same behaviour as gnome-terminal. Problem seems to be non-app specific. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1089578 shows another user with the same problem. May be linked to the binary nvidia, am unable to test without since I'm not aware of any way to get separate X with nv or mesa. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: separate x-screen -- Separate X-screen, apps launched from 2nd screen appear on first screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339783 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
