Public bug reported:

I got NVidea's twinview enabled with two monitors - one in front of me (main) and one to the left (secondary, NOT main!).
[Because of enough trouble with the launcher bar on the leftmost edge of the virtual desktop of 2 times HDTV...]

Now, notification popups like new mail, connection established, whatever
- they all appear on the SECONDARY monitor far, far to my right where a
notfication does not make ANY sense! I don't see it pop-up there!

Either it should be displayed on BOTH monitors or the MAIN monitor setting must be followed and popups be displayed there!
It's really unusable this way. I wonder: does no developer of Ubuntu ever use a two-monitor-setup????

** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided

** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
