[Bug 885989] [NEW] white screen on second monitor for dual head mode

 

Public bug reported:

If enable dual head mode (two X screens), the second monitor went white
after login with unity or unity-2d. After tracking the gnome-session, it
is caused by running "nautilus -n" for this configuration. And if kill
the nautilus process, the desktop showed up normally on second screen.
