Public bug reported:

On Oneiric with Unity, when using dual monitors in different
orientations (Samsung 1440 x 900, one landscape, one portrait, ATI
Radeon graphics card), the workspace switcher fails to display
correctly:

Expected:
- Previews of the four workspaces visible on both monitors, ability to drag and 
drop windows between the workspaces on either monitor
- Ability to select workspace with mouse on either monitor, and change to that 
workspace with a double-click

Actual:
- On the left (landscape) screen the four workspace previews can be interacted 
with only if the desktop area originating from the left screen in each 
workspace preview is clicked. The portion of the desktop originating from the 
right screen does not respond.
- On the right screen, the four workspace preview windows display with much 
artifact above and below. The workspace previews cannot be selected nor 
interacted with on this screen.
- It is impossible to drag windows from one workspace preview window to another 
on either screen.
- Clicking on the top half of the bottom two workspace previews causes the 
workspace above to be switched to despite the lower workspace showing the 
'selected' orange rectangle around it.

(Installing the proprietary ATI linux drivers causes the second screen
to become a fixed mirror only with no option to extend the desktop onto
it, thus this is not an acceptable solution.)
