Title:
  Compiz' Put plugin makes random mistakes in moving maximize windows
  between displays

Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When using the Put plugin in Compiz to send a window to the next
  dispaly (the option is called "Put To Next Output"), sometimes Put
  fails as follows: It moves the window to the next output (animated),
  then suddenly the window jumps back to the prevoius display.

  At least in my case, this only happens with Maximized windows.
  Interestingly, repeating the same operation a couple of times (without
  even resizing the window) will eventually lead to the expect
  behaviour.

  Note that (as shown in the attached files), my two displays are not of
  exactly the same size (23 inch versus 22 inch), but they both use the
  same resolution. I doubt if that is the root cause (because of similar
  resolution) but I still wanted to point it out.

  I am not aware of any way to log the behaviour, but if provided
  guidance, I would be willing to record such logs.
