Bug Description
Binary package hint: xsplash
I hope this is the right package, sorry.
I have a desktop with an nvidia card in "twinview" mode on two screens. Pretty standard fare I'd guess. When xsplash runs it fills over both screens, so the logo and the throbber and cut in half - its easier to see if you look at the photo attached.
Pre-gdm I get xsplash over both screens
GDM presents the greeter/login thing on one screen only (primary display - the one the panels subsequently appear on)
Post-logon, pre-desktop, xsplash comes back spread across both screens.
This looks sub-optimal, and would be a regression given the old usplash (or whatever we used in 9.04) would show a throbber on both screens (one on each).
