In dual screen mode only one screen is served (maverick regression)

[Eugene Crosser]

Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

Starting in maverick beta, when screensaver is activated (GLSlideshow mode) the picture is on only one of the two screens.

gnome-screensaver:
  Installed: 2.30.0-1ubuntu1

xorg:
  Installed: 1:7.5+6ubuntu3

$ lspci
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M56GL [Mobility FireGL V5200]

Hardware is Lenovo T60p notebook.
One screen is notebooks' builtin screen, another is external monitor (connected via DSUB).
In lucid, both screens where served, randomly with either the same picture on both screens or with different pictures.

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May you please test with that version and comment back if you're still having or not the issue? Please have a look at http://www.ubuntu.com/download to know how to install that version. Thanks in advance and sorry for the late response.

In natty, none of the GL screensavers work for me (in dual-screen mode at least). So I guess this problem either does not exist anymore or is masked by a bigger one.
