I should note that my solution to this problem (which renders XFCE completely unusable) was to switch to Gnome (whose window placement model was fixed right before XFCE's was broken). A couple of hours hunting up widgets, and I don't even notice anymore (and I switch between XFCE 4.4 on an old machine at work and Gnome on my machines at home on a daily basis).
That's the nice thing about F/OSS - when someone breaks a behavior on which you relied for years, you can kick them to the curb and find some other app which might even be better. -- Xubuntu: newly opened windows are no longer placed on front https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366683 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
