[Bug 1009883] [NEW] Compiz crashes when window moved to second monitor for first time after additional monitor plugged in

 

Public bug reported:

When plugging in an external monitor while logged in, the first time a
window is moved from the primary monitor to the secondary one, Compiz
crashes.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Log in with second monitor disconnected
2. Open an application (e.g. terminal)
3. Connect second monitor: the desktop is then extended to the new monitor
4. Grab the window opened in #2 and drag it to the second monitor

At the point where the window is between the two monitors, Unity hangs
for a second and Compiz crashes
