2009-04-20 06:24:31 HfX description I am on Kubuntu 8.10 Linux 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Wed Apr 1 20:57:48 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux Package: thunderbird Version: 2.0.0.21+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.10.1 Architecture: i386 Maintainer: Alexander Sack <asac@ubuntu.com> I have a dual screen configuration (see attached xorg.conf) configured with the "ATI Catalyst control center". It works fine. When I am at work I use both monitors, my built in laptop screen and an external 1024x768 Compaq LCD. When I start thunderbird it starts immediately and shows me my one and only configured newsgroup news.grc.com fine. When I am at home I only use the notebooks built in LCD 1680x1050. When I start thunderbird via the KDE start menu it shows shortly in the control bar but then is gone. Doing a "ps waux | grep thun" shows me, that it is running/hanging somewhere. The program is not on the second screen and invisible. The GUI is not here! Btw. I always use it on the primary screen (the builtin notebook screen) and never moved it to the other. I had this bug a long ago and went to kmail because of this. Now I thought Thunderbird would work for news and it did. As I found out now the problem (with mail and news) is the second screen missing. I hope you could solve this bug. It prevents me from using Thunderbird.
