I to am running 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP with dual monitors on an Lenovo
ThinkPad w500
apt-cache policy thunderbird

The problem is exactly the same as described previously. I have two
monitors at work, and thunderbird works fine. When I bring home the
laptop, I can not get thunderbird to display while using the laptop's
LCD. When I start thunderbird from the commandline, I do NOT get any
errors, nor do I see any pop-ups unless I start with the "-P". Then I
get a popup to use or create a profile. Either choice there, new or use
existing will NOT display the main thunderbird window. I can do a ps
and see:
ps -ef | grep thunder
user 7999 7841 0 16:27 pts/1 00:00:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/thunderbird
user 8011 7999 0 16:27 pts/1 00:00:00 /bin/sh
/usr/lib/thunderbird/run-mozilla.sh /usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird-bin
user 8015 8011 7 16:27 pts/1 00:00:02
/usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird-bin
Yet no window is present. I use the "gtk workspace switcher" and can
see that thunderbird is NOT started in any other virtual desktop. The
ATI/Catalyst control panel shows that the video driver is in SINGLE
monitor mode. Any thoughts?
