Public bug reported:

I've observed two position bugs running a dual monitor setup under
11.04:

1) libnotify popups appear in the upper right corner of the 2nd monitor, way out of my area of visual focus.
2) Some apps (Libre Office) pop up their splash screen in a weird spot on the 1st monitor toward the right edge of the screen (as if it's calculating the center in between the two monitors).
