Public bug reported: Binary package hint: metacity
I'm cross-posting this bug report because I think it's actually a METACITY bug and not an xorg bug. Original bug report (with all debugging attachements) located at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/492861 My text of the bug report: Using the latest ati drivers on a Rv535 (Mobility Radeon X2300) video card. When using metacity and trying to display an openoffice impress presentation with a dual monitor setup, the presenter console is displayed on top of the presentation. That is on top of the actual presentation on the second monitor. This is obviously useless and incorrect. The presenter-console should be displayed on the laptop (monitor 1) while the presentation should be displayed on the external monitor (monitor 2). Interestingly, when I switch window managers to compiz, the behaviour of the presenter console **magically** is corrected and does not over lay on the single monitor (monitor 2). It behaves as expected. I know this presenter console worked with the FGLRX driver in Hardy & Intrepid. So, I'm thinking that the xorg-xserver-ati (xorg-xserver- radeon) driver is mis-specifying the monitor 1/monitor 2 designation in how openoffice.org is quering xorg-xserver-ati? Please let me know if you have any troubleshooting, or need more information. - CH ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 CheckboxSubmission: 34e39cc89f11f35837162c4183aa954e CheckboxSystem: b845c366ea09c60efa3a45c1b5b21525 Date: Thu Dec 10 11:02:00 2009 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 9.10 "Karmic Koala" - Release i386 (20091028.5) NonfreeKernelModules: wl Package: metacity 1:2.28.0-0ubuntu1 ProcEnviron: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-16.53-generic SourcePackage: metacity Uname: Linux 2.6.31-16-generic i686 ** Affects: metacity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 -- metacity causes openoffice.org-presenter-console to be displayed on wrong screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495102 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
