[Desktop-packages] [Bug 521492] Re: [Patch upstream] Dual Monitor wallpaper is not scaling across both monitors, same background is repeated on both monitors instead
Can confirm that this bug still appears in Ubuntu 12.04. Have noticed that using Advanced Settings (gnome-tweak-tool) to set Have file manager handle the desktop to Off reverts control of the desktop background to Compiz, so if you have a background set in CompizConfig Settings Manager's Wallpaper plugin it displays in the correct manner, i.e. tiled from the top left corner across both screens. However, doing so also disables icons and the right-click menu on the desktop.
