Public bug reported:
I'm using Unity-2D (so metacity), up-to-date precise, 32 bit. Since a
while (I can't tell the exact point, since I've just noticed it) I can't
drag tabs in chrome and firefox (to re-order tabs) anymore. I am sure in
one thing: it works in oneiric at least, since I have a machine running
oneiric. If I try to drag a tab in firefox (version 13, not from ubuntu
but installed "manually"). The twist: I use firefox from another machine
(running hardy) but via ssh X11 redirection. However, chrome is running
on the local machine. In firefox if I drag a tab, nothing happens: I can
see the translucent image of the page and I can drag it, I can't "dock"
it between the tabs, if I release the mouse button, the image just
"jumps back". With chrome, again: I can see the translucent image, and I
can drag it, but again, I can't "dock" it, if I release the mouse button
it creates a new window instead of docking among the already existing
tabs in the already existing window at the desired position. It seems
that locally launched firefox 13 (from ubuntu repo!) works however. Also
tab re-arraning eg in geany seems to be OK. Btw, composite effects are
enabled via gconf in metacity.
