[Bug 578890] [NEW] Maximized window opens in the secondary monitor if it is on the left side of the main one.

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Laptop. Secondary monitor situated on the left.
Opening Firefox or Evolution is possible on laptop's LCD  but only when it wasn't maximized earlier.
If it was maximized then it will jump immediately to the secondary monitor.
It doesn't happen if secondary monitor is configured-situated on the right side of laptop.

A lot of other windows i.e. GIMP tools opens on the secondary monitor. They treat it as primary monitor.
None of googled gconf-editor tricks help...
Extremally annoying. Makes such configuration unusable.
