[i945gm] Maximized window opens in the secondary monitor if it is on the left side of the main one.

[Grzegorz]

Laptop. Secondary monitor situated on the left.
Opening Firefox or Evolution is possible on laptop's LCD but only when it wasn't maximized earlier.
If it was maximized then it will jump immediately to the secondary monitor.
It doesn't happen if secondary monitor is configured-situated on the right side of laptop.

A lot of other windows i.e. GIMP tools opens on the secondary monitor. They treat it as primary monitor.
None of googled gconf-editor tricks help...
Extremally annoying. Makes such configuration unusable.

Grzegorz, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-intel REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.
