Description Gabriel Schulhof 2006-08-31 21:55:48 UTC
Please describe the problem:
When running dual head (:1.0 and :1.1) and running evince from the "Run Application" dialog - or, from a terminal, for that matter, on :0.1, evince displays itself on :1.0. I have tried explicitly running evince --display=:1.1 and it still refuses to display itself on :1.1.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Set up dual-head in X.
2. Log into your GNOME session.
3. Move the mouse over your secondary head (:1.1)
4. Alt+F2, evince, Enter



Actual results:
evince shows up on the primary head (:1.0)

Expected results:
I expect evince to show up on the secondary head (:1.1)

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
No.
