I've figured out what happened: Scenario 1: boot X with only one monitor attached, then attach the second one and enable it (eg with nvidia-settings). The popup notifications appear on the first monitor both before and after you enable the second one. This is what must have happened for me earlier when I thought it was fixed.
Scenario 2: boot X with both monitors already attached and enabled (ie so there is a left- and right-hand side monitor). Popup notifications only appear on the second (right-hand side) monitor. Note that if you then disable the second monitor, popup notifications don't appear _anywhere_ - notify-osd must be trying to show them at the original location, which no longer exists. So notify-osd must be (a) reading the X screen resolution _only_ at startup, and (b) failing to take into account that X's screen is actually split over two monitors. I imagine if notify-osd read where the gnome-panel is located each time it needs to display a popup it would be more successful. -- Notifications show up on the wrong screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/336848 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
