Package: metacity
Severity: normal
Version: GNOME2.1.90 2.4.13
Synopsis: Metacity keybindings and multi-head
Bugzilla-Product: metacity
Bugzilla-Component: general
Description:
Description of Problem:
When using non-xinerama multi-head Metacity keybindings do not follow
the focused head. For example, I have <Mod4>1 set to run gnome-terminal.
No matter which head I am currently working in (has a window focused)
gnome-terminal is always run with the DISPLAY set to the primary head.

Should just set DISPLAY to the current screen, I guess. Seems pretty
straightforward.
Comment 2 Havoc Pennington 2003-02-25 22:12:10 UTC 
This may also be needed for metacity-dialog etc. not sure 
we're handling that.
