Comment 3 for bug 760824

Thanks. I am aware of that and similar workarounds, but the issue remains. The more important thing to address is to more consistently and properly handle which screen is primary. There are not easy ways to set this, change it, or remember for the future. I have been testing Gnome 3 and the problem still exists there as well.

KDE's concept of only showing windows in the task bar for the screen that it's on is a big help, but laptop users need more flexibility and a quick way to change from one screen configuration to another. I realize that this is a larger issue than this one bug and bugs in several packages including proprietary drivers don't help us get to a resolution.
