GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 475770
Notification area problem when using multiple screens
Last modified: 2007-09-11 09:33:46 UTC
At the moment, although you can add a notification area to a second or third screen, applications either migrate to the notification area on the first screen, OR, their tool-tray icon simply fails to appear. For those of us with a number of screens this is a real show stopper as one's notification area fills up very quickly and typically it ties many applications to the root screen. Other information: I've noticed some other applications (not tied to the notification area) also seem to display the same problem. (NX for example) I don't know if this is a connected problem ...
I can confirm this on my dual-screen box...
