Still a problem in fedora 12 beta. I found a somewhat better workaround is to list my monitors as if the are stacked vertically. It gets confusing needing to move the mouse down the screen to move to the right, but then I do not get any pop-up windows between monitors, and somehow the "maximize" button knows to extend only the size of one monitor. Bill I changed xorg.conf file "screen" section as follows:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
Option "TwinView" "1"
Option "Xinerama" "1"
Option "TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder" "DFP-0"
Option "NoTwinViewXineramaInfo" "False"
Option "metamodes" "CRT-0: 1280x1024_75 +0+0, CRT-1: 1280x1024_75 +1
280+0"
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection
This resolves all my problems, except the one reported in the subject line. I still can not move or create panels on my right monitor.

Yep, I am having the same issue here. Started with F-11 and continues in F-12. It was really nice having a separate panel/window list for the second screen. If this ability could be re-introduced it would be great. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 537959 *** Bug 494740 notes that panels *can* be moved with Alt + drag. |
