I can confirm what Prasanna sees. When Chromium is launched maximized, typing in the address bar makes the browser jump to the non-external screen. No bug when Chromium is not maximized.

A bug report has already been filed at askubuntu : http://askubuntu.com/questions/279641/nautilus-dual-monitor-issue I have a dual monitor setup (big desktop style where mouse goes from one screen to the other) in Precise 12.04.2 with my laptop on the left and external screen on the right. I have an ATI Radeon HD3635 card using fglrx drivers and I'm always using the Gnome Classic (No effects) environment. What happens: 1. Open Nautilus program on ext screen and maximize it 2. Double click on a random folder 3. The Nautilus window jumps to the laptop screen What should happen: 1. Open Nautilus program on ext screen and maximize it 2. Double click on a random folder 3. The Nautilus window should stay where it is. On the ext screen. When it doesn't happen: 1. Open Nautilus program on ext screen and make sure it's not maximized 2. Double click on random folder 3. The Nautilus window stays on the ext screen I also have a startup script doing this: /usr/bin/xrandr --output CRT1 --right-of LVDS /usr/bin/xrandr --output CRT1 --primary Where CRT1 is the ext screen and LVDS is laptop screen. Any help is appreciated, even more because Precise stays supported until 2017. And it's an annoying bug. ;) --- ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.3 Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 GsettingsChanges: org.gnome.nautilus.window-state geometry '1438x813+1440+58' org.gnome.nautilus.window-state sidebar-width 214 org.gnome.nautilus.window-state start-with-status-bar true InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release i386 (20120423) MarkForUpload: True NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx Package: nautilus 1:3.4.2-0ubuntu8 PackageArchitecture: i386 ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-48.74-generic-pae 3.2.46 Tags: precise Uname: Linux 3.2.0-48-generic-pae i686 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1195725/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
