Bug Description
To replicate:
1. Enable multiple desktops. I assume that you will also have the keyboard shortcuts enabled. Ctrl+Alt+Shift+ Arrow Key will move a window to a desktop in that direction; Ctrl+Alt+Arrow Key will move your current display to a desktop in that direction.
2. Make a full screen window.
3. Move that window to a different desktop (ie, Ctrl+Alt+
4. Before the window has finished moving to the new desktop, move your view back to the old desktop (ie, Ctrl+Alt+Left)
If you timed it correctly, the window will be frozen between the two desktops. The problem persists even if you move the window between desktops. You can fix it by sending it to one side (Ie, Ctrl+Windows+Left).
I am running an updated Raring build on a cheap Asus Eee PC. I have a computer science background if you have any questions that would help debugging the issue.
