Description simon 2007-04-26 10:13:08 UTC
Description of problem:
When I have some windows maximised (gnome-terminal) and I press alt-tab, they
can sometimes just to my other monitor. (I have two monitors setup using
twinview on my nvidia card).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
compiz-0.3.6-2.fc6

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start with no open apps
2. Open 3 gnome-terminals
3. Place two on the one monitor and one on the other monitor
4. Maxmimise one of the terminals on the monitor that has two.
5. Alt-tab to the terminal on the other monitor. 
6. Alt-tab to the maximised terminal.
7. Can repeat from 5.

Actual results:
Maximised terminal moves to the monitor containing the terminal we just
alt-tabbed from.

Expected results:
Maxmimised terminal stays put.

Fedora Core 6 is no longer supported, could you please reproduce this with the
updated version of the currently supported distribution (Fedora 7, 8, or
Rawhide)? If this issue turns out to still be reproducible, please let us know
in this bug report. If after a month's time we have not heard back from you, we
will have to close this bug as CANTFIX.

Setting status to NEEDINFO, and awaiting information from the reporter.

Since there are insufficient details provided in this report for us to
investigate the issue further, and we have not received feedback to the
information we have requested above, we will assume the problem was not
reproducible, or has been fixed in one of the updates we have released for the
reporter's distribution.

Users who have experienced this problem are encouraged to upgrade to the latest
update of their distribution, and if this issue turns out to still be
reproducible in the latest update, please reopen this bug with additional

Closing as INSUFFICIENT_DATA.
