Git patch to fix make mixer multihead aware (938 bytes, patch)

Description Matt Keenan (IRC:MattMan) 2009-05-21 14:13:35 UTC 
- Multihead display (2 screen in my case)
- Add mixer applet to panel on both heads.
- When clicking mixer applet on 2nd head (screen 1), the volume control
  dock is displayed on screen 0.
- Mixer applet on 1st head (screen 0), behaves correctly.

This is very easy to fix, just set the correct screen when the dock is created in
dock.c.

Git patch to fix make mixer multihead aware

Git patch (my first one ever), attached which sets screen to that of the parent
applet when creating the dock, this ensures the dock is actually displayed on the correct of a multihead setup.

So this is my first attempt to put someone elses patch into my git tree. Its painless once you find the right command.

You didn't test the patch did you? A slight typo means it doesn't compile.

Patch applied to both master and gnome-2-26.
