[Bug 394807] Re: Windows don't drag correctly with dual monitors.

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  When I try to drag a window from one monitor to the other the windows
  refuses to go past a certain point on the left monitor.   I have 2
  monitors.  The left montor is at 1680x1050 resolution.  The right
  monitor is at 1280x1024 resolution.   If I try to drag a window from the
  left side to the right side, the left border of the window seems to
  always stop at a certain point and the window refuses to drag from
  there.   No matter the size of the window, the left border of the window
  seems to always stop about 1280 pixels in on the left montior.
  
  The window seems to render fine on the right monitor, and the curser
  moves freely between both monitors.  I can stretch the right side of any
  window all the way to the right side of my right monitor.
  
  This is a fresh install of ubunu 9.04 64bit.  I'm using an NVIDIA 8800GT
  to drive both monitors.  I haven't installed any special packages or
  anything other than running updated.
  
  I haven't done much to try fixing this.  I thought I'd report it as is
  since this wasn't happening on Hardy and I thought you'd prefer it to
  work "out of the box" as it did before and trying to fix it might
  destroy any chance of figuring out the cause of the issue.
