Screenshot of the dual-monitor setup
My laptop is connected to an external monitor, which I have set as the primary
screen. The taskbar (panel) was appearing correctly onto that screen, until (I
think) I tried out Wayland. Under Wayland, the panel appeared on the laptop. I
might have disconnected the laptop from the monitor; I don't recall precisely.
After learning that Wayland doesn't have the concept of a "primary screen" (to
the chagrin of many users[1]), I edited the panel and dragged it onto the
external monitor.
Due to numerous glitches in Wayland, I decided to go back to X11. I rebooted
and logged in under X11. Now the panel appears on the laptop, even though the
external monitor is set as primary. If I set the laptop as primary, the panel
moves onto the external monitor.
