I have 2 screens using nvidia twinview with left (primary, 17" LCD, 1280x1024) and significantly larger right (21" CRT, 2048x1536) monitors. The left screen contains the two standard panels and usually firefox (and evolution if it's workings :P). Right screen usually idles in IRC on Pidgin and plays music with Banshee.
When I first switched to Jaunty, having the notifications show up on the right of the right screen somewhere near the middle was a slight annoyance. It's twice the height of my primary, so the notifications would show up near where the top of the left screen is...about 1024 pixels high. If a song changed, I had to turn my head to what was playing in banshee instead of getting the libnotify popup under my clock and over firefox. Same goes for buddies logging in and out of pidgin. This problem was fixed a couple of weeks ago, but has since regressed to its original behavior. -- regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331369 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Notify OSD Developers, which is subscribed to Notify OSD.
