Hey guys, Well I also reported this as one of several "MAJOR" bugs in lucid and maverick. All of the wallpaper options simply mirror the image on dual monitors and "span" of course, as mentioned many times here, simply places the image between the two monitors.. This is not the most serious bug in lucid/maverick.. but certainly one of the most annoying of them. This can be remedied under xorg.conf under Section Screen by adding Option "NoTwinViewXineramaInfo" "true" ... However. that only reproduces an old nvidia bug that has since been solved...great for watching full screen dual monitor videos but bad for daily work environment, and of course I don't know if this works with ati or intel video ! As I mentioned,,, this is one of sever major bugs on lucid/maverick... and all of those bugs combined prevent me from reinstalling lucid as a serious work environment and I cannot ask my clients to upgrade to Lucid because of these bugs. This is, along with the other bugs... this one being the most serious https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/581904 , is a big step backwards for ubuntu and most certainly for LTS!!! coz
