Public bug reported:
When exiting from a full-screen program (e.g. Firefox on F11 mode), the
window is returned with its top left corner aligned off the top of the
screen. Reproducible on any multi-screen desktop environment where the
screens have different resolutions or different orientations such that
the left monitor's desktop top most border is lower than the right.
Frequently, the right most monitor becomes deactivated, with its
configuration returned to default and has to be reset in the Display
settings.
Frequently, the top of the launcher is moved down by the number of
pixels equal to the y-axis difference between the top of the left
monitor and top of the right monitor.
Exiting from a fullscreen program realigns any desktop icons which would
fall onto the right screen.
Installing the proprietary ATI drivers causes the loss of the ability to
make the right screen portrait thus is not an acceptable fix.
Expected behaviour;
- Windows returned to their original alignments (e.g. maximised on smaller
monitor, no part falling off-screen)
- Display configuration remains saved
- Icons remain in their original positions
Setup:
- Ubuntu 11.10 (Unity)
- ATI Radeon dual-head DVI
- Samsung SyncMaster943 monitors (x 2), Left in landscape, Right in portrait
This seems to be another in a series of bugs related to Unity and the
multi-display configuration.
