Description Will Stephenson 2008-02-25 17:20:52 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)

The desktop doesn't know about the panel position, so top and right panels hide the desktop toolbox controls.

Re opening, sounds like the darned xinerama has struck again.

Comment 9 Aaron J. Seigo 2008-03-17 20:38:02 UTC

actually, this is just another symptom of the underlying problem seen in the other xinerama issues dealing with struts. namely that struts, even of the extended sort, are not designed with multiple screens in mind. period.
