[Bug 228760] [NEW] openjdk does not place windows properly on multi-monitor configration

 

Public bug reported:

OpenJDK opens windows at the center of the entire desktop - not the
center of the active screen as the window manager indicates. I believe
openjdk needs to be compiled with xinerama support, or perhaps allow the
window manager to place windows.

To reproduce, just run:
javaws http://www.soapui.org/jnlp/2.0.2/soapui.jnlp
and watch the windows popup in between screens.

** Affects: openjdk-6 (Ubuntu)
