[Bug 522584] Re: Applications starting in fullscreen jump to the "left" monitor in a dual-screen setup

 

I don't remember seeing this problem recently anymore. I'm using oneiric
with unity-2d (which uses metacity) so I guess this bug is fixed now.

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.
