Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: metacity
Sometimes when I attempt to close, maximizes, minimize or move a window,
metacity will for some reason pick the wrong window to do the action on.
Some examples:
- A terminal is maximized in front of a maximized firefox window and when I
close it it instead attempts to close firefox (tells me I am closing X tabs, am
I sure? etc.)
- A terminal is opened maximized in my right monitor, I open a new terminal
which appears in my left monitor, but when I try to maximize it (by double
clicking the titlebar) the terminal in my right monitor is moved to my cursor
as if I'd dragged it there
- A terminal is opened in my left monitor and another is fullscreen in my
right, I click the titlebar and try to start moving the left terminal but the
right screen terminal instead moves to my curser as if I'd attempted to move
that one
It's not consistent, and sometimes these actions work properly, however
I can generally always reproduce it if I spend a few minutes trying.
I'm using ubuntu karmic, using xserver-xorg-video-ati version
1:6.12.99+git20090825.fc74e119-0ubuntu3. I have two 1280x1024 monitors
set up side by side using xrandr.
