Description Alex Fiestas 2007-11-26 11:54:54 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

The taskbar is positioned on monitor 2 (secondary) and not in the main monitor (monitor 1).

In kde3, the kicker panel works well in this case (I can switch between monitor 1 or 2).

Congrats for the new kde4 desktop, look very nice.

which monitor is physically on the left?

and if this is simply a "i can't move the panel between screens" report then it's a duplicate of #152696
Comment 2 Alex Fiestas 2007-11-28 09:58:57 UTC 
Yes, the second display is physically on the left.

I use the twinview and I have it configure width:
Option         "TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder" "DFP"
Option         "metamodes" "CRT: 1280x1024_75, DFP: 1280x800_60; CRT: nvidia-auto-select, DFP: 1280x800"

I think that it is correct because work well with kde3.

Re-unconfirm (owner changing confirmed the bug).
Comment 4 Jason Stubbs 2007-12-08 15:53:42 UTC 
Is this the same issue as bug #153581 ?
Comment 5 Jason Stubbs 2007-12-08 15:54:30 UTC 
Wrong bug. Sorry.
Comment 6 Aaron J. Seigo 2008-01-11 03:43:30 UTC 
ok, so the positioning is as intended (left most monitor). this makes this the "let me configure the panel using the gui" issue. in the meanwhile, you can edit your plasma-appletsrc file in the meantime and, look for plugin=panel and change screen=1 to screen=0 ...
