Title:
  with multiple-monitors, firefox menus/url history/tooltips shows up on
  wrong monitor

Status in Mozilla Firefox:
  Invalid
Status in firefox-3.0 package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  I have a dual-monitor setup using an NVIDIA 7600GT and proprietary
  drivers on TwinView mode.

  I'm using Intrepid Ibex (8.10) with the latest updates as of Nov 7th.

  When I have firefox on the right-side monitor, the menus, url history,
  textfield history, and tooltips all show up on the left-side monitor.

  ===============================================

  TO REPRODUCE:

  1. Have only a single monitor enabled.
  2. Open firefox
  3. Enable the secondary monitor.
  4. Move the firefox window to the secondary monitor.
  5. Open menus/tooltips/etc. They will show up on the primary monitor.

  WORKAROUND:

  To get around this, switch steps 2 and 3.

  ==============================================

  Unfortunately, I can't seem to get a screenshots of the menus/url
  history/textfield issues because they disappear when I click away from
  the browser (screenshot won't get taken unless I click away from the
  menu/history).  But I was able to get a shot of a tooltip showing up
  incorrectly.
