BertN45, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-ati REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

It works more of less, except when I start a new program: - the display is full with other windows, because then a new window is put on the LEFT of display 1 or partly so that only the right part of the window is displayed. This often happens with Nautilus, Terminal and others. - with Evolution (full screen by default?) the windows is always put completely at the left of display 1 and with ALT+F7, I have to drag the window to screen 1. It looks that the system, while looking for the best spot to put the windows, assumes that screen 2 is on the left, but it is at the bottom. The added information should show the Evolution window at the left of screen 1.
