Public bug reported:
There are several factors at play here, and the only website I can replicate
the problem is MSNBC (does not occur on Hulu or YouTube)
first, my setup
Kubuntu: 11.10 (64bit)
Firefox: 8.0
Flash: 11,1,102,55 (64bit)
Dual head video card (nVidia using free, built in drivers NOT nVidia
proprietary drivers)
if I click the "full screen" button in the video that's playing it plays
on the left monitor only (regardless of which screen I'm in). it also
positions the video so that it's half way cut off by the right edge of
the screen as though it is trying to spread it across the entire
horizontal width of both screens. I have reported this to MSNBC, as I
suspect it is a problem with their code, but I thought I'd submit it
here as well for verification. if you can replicate the issue and also
believe it's a MSNBC issue can we try to get them to fix it?
