Bug Description
I'm using 2 screens, first is laptop (1280x800), second is external monitor (1440x900). Laptop screen is left and primary.
Steps to repro:
1. Open terminal and move it to screen 2
2. Run "gedit"
3. Gedit window should appear on screen 2.
4. Maximise gdit window.
5. Close gedit window.
6. In Terminal, run "gedit" again
Expected result:
Gedit opens maximised on screen 2
Actual result:
Gedit opens maximised on screen 1. You can see a flash of gedit on screen 2 before it appears on screen 1.
If you unmimimise the gedit window on screen 1, it jumps back to screen 2.
Note:
Metacity is patched to make almost-fullscreen application windows change to fullscreen. This is possible culprit
