Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: compiz
I am running dual monitors using Nvidia Twinview with 2 workspaces. With
compiz disabled workspaces work as expected. Enabling Compiz causes some odd
behavior switching workspaces.
To reproduce:
1. Enable Compiz with Appearances applet.
2. I didn't make any changes to Gconf for Compiz, but my hsize is set to 2,
number of desktops 1, vsize 1.
3. On workspace 1 open 2 terminals.
4. Move one terminal to workspace 2(to the workspace on the right)
5. Using the mouse and Workspace Switcher in the panel, switch between the 2
workspaces. It should switch correctly.
6. Go back to workspace 1(on the left)
7. Try using the keyboard to switch to the right workspace. Instead of
switching the "cube" animation will run, but the workspace will stay on 1(left).
8. With workspace 1(left) still in view, use the keyboard toswitch to
workspace left(since we have 2 workspaces this will be workspace 2"right").
The "cube" animation should run and workspace 2 will be correctly displayed.
9. Now on workspace 2, from the keyboard try to switch again to workspace
left(should take us back to workspace 1). The cube animation should run, but
we end up still on the same workspace(2).
10. Still on workspace 2 try going to workspace right. The "cube" animation
runs and we are switched to workspace 1 correctly.
11. Now for even more weirdness. On workspace 1 using the keyboard very
quickly issue 2 commands to switch to workspace right. The "cube" animation
will run and we correctly get switched to workspace right. The same thing
happens if you quickly issue 2 workspace left commands from the keyboard(it
works correctly).
I hope my explanation make sense. It's kind of hard to describe what
I'm seeing,
