[Bug 771448] Re: desktop wall edge flipping broken

 

Piling on.

I've been living with this since switching over to alpha Natty
repositories several months ago. Figured it was just screwed up
configuration, or would sort itself out , but recently did a clean
upgrade on a second computer and am seeing exactly the same issue.

Edge flipping will work a few times (anywhere from once to a few dozen),
and then stop. Extremely aggravating, since it's so random. As observed
by the others, grabbing a title bar and moving a window around a little
(usually) seems to reset things -  temporarily. So does unchecking and
rechecking the option in compizconfig, or disabling and reenabling wall.
(Occasionally, it seems to develop a pattern, where particular sides are
more problematic than others: for example, after "resetting" as above,
doing nothing but flipping left and right will seem to work fine for
some time, but not up and down - and trying to will break left/right as
well.  This may be my imagination though. It's hardly consistent.)

Derek's workaround seems to work (thanks Derek, big relief!).
