Great, thanks a lot! The patch fixes the issue of self-moving windows indeed. One exception: When moving a window from one display to another display (multi head setup), the window moves stubbornly.

Just want to confirm that is working perfectly here, I wasn't able to patch it myself so I'm using the provided ppa. This solves the fullscreen video issue (not only flash, any fullscreen app like video players), and also the problems with fullscreen applications running under wine with a dualhead (two monitors, nvidia, twinview). Also, it solves the problem of some applications with the fixed position plugin changing randomly from one desktop to another (vviewport). I'm using gnome-session-fallback with a little tweaking to make it load compiz directly from lightdm (skipping metacity wich is the default window manager for the fallback mode in gnome3).

[Bug 974242] Re: Compiz edge detection code is moving windows against my will
Just to echo the others: an hour of testing in, and I've nothing but joy to report. This patch makes Compiz/Gnome-Fallback usable. Things behave as you would expect: windows aren't jumping all over the place or getting stuck, and, per the other bug, the panel isn't getting in the way of fullscreen applications. @monjurul@88 it's a bit hectic: sudo apt-get build-dep compiz sudo apt-get install devscripts wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/974242/+attachment/3141645/+files/fix-974242.patch apt-get source compiz cd compiz* # you might want to replace the * patch -p1 ~/Desktop/fix-974242.patch dpkg-source --commit debuild -us -uc That should dump a whole collection of debs in `..`. After that just install the ones you need with `dpkg -i`. If you're using nvidia (pointedly the xorg-edgers PPA version) you might have problems compiling things that link to /usr/lib/libGL.so* so I just moved those files to my desktop, ran the `debuild -us -uc` command again and after that, moved the libGL files back. The bigger question is, how do we go about nominating this patch for immediate inclusion in Ubuntu so people aren't forced to download half a gig just to compile this in? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/974242 Title: Compiz edge detection code is moving windows against my will To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/974242/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Dàrent, yes you need the source code and knowledge of how to patch and compile code. You also need enough knowledge to be able to recover your system if you break anything. So I do not recommend digging further if you don't already know. It's too risky. Many people will also see bug 755842, which sounds very similar to this one.

[Bug 974242] Re: Compiz edge detection code is moving windows against my will
I just wanted to confirm that this is happening on both by Nvidia TwinView desktop and my Intel 945GM laptop. Both of these systems are ubuntu 12.04 - amd64. Problematic behavior disappears after disabling the place plugin within compiz. After disabling this plugin remember that holding the alt key will allow you to move a window even if you can't grab the bar along the top. The worst impact of this bug for me is windows getting stuck to the top and bottom of the screen. After a window has touched either the bottom or top of the screen it will permanently be stuck there. I can drag the window away from the edge but the moment I release the mouse button the window will return to the edge. Moving a window to the left or right causes the mouse cursor to no longer match up with the windowThis causes a certain degree of desktop flipping and window management havoc. I use a 4x1 (4 columns x 1 row) workspace layout so moving windows off the workspace left or right is different than moving them up or down. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/974242 Title: Compiz edge detection code is moving windows against my will To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/974242/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 974242] Re: Compiz edge detection code is moving windows against my will
I have tracked this down to the Place Window plugin. Disabling the plugin releases a window from its edge-captivity and while it's turned off future border clashes don't ensnare windows. That would be great if it wasn't so necessary. Compiz is near-unusable without it so that's only ever a temporary fix. And this is testing with the precise-proposed version, 0.9.7.6-0ubuntu1.

Yes, turning off the Place Window plugin worked for me. Windows no longer spazz out when in-between workspaces, in-between monitors, or just not stritcly contained in one viewport in general. The downside is that now all programs that don't exlplicitly state a location to map the window at are placed at (0,0), which is annoying if you want to open multiple programs at once. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/974242 Title: Compiz edge detection code is moving windows against my will To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/974242/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
