[Bug 1017374] [NEW] Windows snap back to edges of screen
Public bug reported: When a window is at the edge of the screen and is resized to full screen. When you later resize to nolonger being full screen, when you try to move the weindow to a new location away from the edge of teh screen the window will snap back to the edge of the screen it was originally against when if was first sized to full screen. It happens with all the programs I have tested it with, including, but not limited to, Firefox, xterm, and mplayer. I'm using Gnome Classic. Another issue is there is no bug reporting option under the menuing system. I had to figure outr what the bug reporting tool was then invoke the bug reporting command (ubuntu-bug) via the command line in an xterm. Third, I should have had a screen provided by the bug reporting tool (ubuntu-bug) to enter this data. It would have made much better sense to collect the data them. As is I had to wait well over a minute for this screen to show up so I could describe the actual fault.

[Bug 1017382] [NEW] Multi-screen options failure under Gnome Classic
Public bug reported: When multi-screens preferences dialog is brought up and the number of screens is changed, it messes up and the pannels go away, all windows vanish, but programs are still running, and you are left with only your background wallpaper showing with no option other than to reboot or some alternate login. Network login and using "control alt F1" to get the text console work. Then the window manager can be killed to force a logout on the graphical console. ** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1017382 Title: Multi-screen options failure under Gnome Classic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/1017382/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1017374] Re: Windows snap back to edges of screen
Another windo size snapping issue. When an mplayer window is resized off of full screen (using "f" full screen toggle command in mplayer) the window initially resizes like it did before, but then a fraction of a second later the top and bottom edges of the window snap to the top and bottom of the screen. Anoter issue is the gnome pannels display themselves on top of the mplayer when mplayer is in full screen mode. I'm now sure this is a gnome-pannel issue rather than an mplayer one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1017374 Title: Windows snap back to edges of screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1017374/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 201681] Re: Cursor position changes while dragging windows
I see this happening when I try moving a window, and a window edge moves beyond the edge of the screen. When that happens, the window will jump to being all on the screen, and the cursor will still be where it was originally. This means the cursor is often nolonger over the window top bar. This could easily be related to the same code changes that cause the bug I just reported on windows jumping back to the screen edges. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/201681 Title: Cursor position changes while dragging windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/201681/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1017382] Re: Multi-screen options failure under Gnome Classic
How to trigger. ***WARNING: Save everything before trying this.*** With a Gnome Classic session. There is a 4 screen multi screen selector on the panel at the bottom of the screen organized as 2 rows of 2 screens. It has a preferences dialog acessable via a right click when on an empty space on it. Bring it up. Notice that the number of rows and screens are both 1 and don't match the layout and number of multiscreens on the selector in the pannel. Just change the number of screens to 8, leave the number of rows as 1, likely any number of screens more than one will work. Notice you get a single row of screens shown. Now click on any one of those screens shown other than the currently active one. All of your windows will now vanish as well as the dialog and pannels. Programs are still running. Contrl-Alt-F1 will still bring up the text console you can use to login and "kill -HUP" your Gnome Classic session. Altenately you can login over the net to do the same. Only workoround I've found sofar is not to change anything in that dialog. For an experiment I did a "kill -HUP" on gnome-panel rather than the root of the login session and the panels came back, and then clicked on one of the other multi-screens and the same vanishing issue happened again. Also a second hangup killing and gnome-panel was gone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1017382 Title: Multi-screen options failure under Gnome Classic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/1017382/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
