Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

I have to workspaces besides each other.
When I click on a task icon that's on the right workspace, I find in the list the entry "Move to workspace down", which is a wrong definition, as it should be "Move to workspace left", though it appropriately moves to the left workspace.
This happens often, though not always.

When I click on a task icon that's on the left workspace, the wording is correct ("Move to workspace right").

Hi Saverio,

This bug was reported against an earlier version of Ubuntu, can you
test if it still occurs on Lucid?

Lucid, please run the following command to refresh the report:

If you are not the original reporter, please file a new bug report, so
we can work with you as the original reporter instead (you can reference
bug 502108 in your report if you think it may be related):

If by chance you can no longer reproduce the issue on Lucid or if you

I tested on Lucid Netbook remix. I had 4 workspaces in a row, and I was able to see "Move to workspace (up/down/left)" on a window on second workspace from the left, while having four workspaces in a row.
The drivers are nvidia proprietary, though - not ati anymore, because the machine is different.
