Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be
reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the stable
release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test
with it so we can work on getting it fixed. You can find out more about
it at http://www.ubuntu.com/download . Thanks again and we appreciate
your help.

Title:
  Applications starting in fullscreen jump to the "left" monitor in a
  dual-screen setup

Status in “metacity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: metacity

  I'm having a dual-screen setup where mine "main" monitor is the right
  one. Until recently (I don't know exactly when it changed) an
  application started in fullscreen was displayed on the monitor with
  the mouse cursor. But now it is displayed for a fraction of a second
  on mine "main" monitor before it jumps to the left one. This only
  happens for applications started in fullscreen and I have to move them
  to the right monitor (once they are there they stay there as long as
  they are running). Other applications stay on the monitor with the
  mouse cursor when started.
