Last modified: 2009-05-28 12:55:40 UTC
Please describe the problem: I have 2 monitors here that run on different xscreens. If I open nautilus via Places->somewhat on the second display then nautilus is opened on the wrong DISPLAY. opening nautlius via the terminal though doesn't result in this bug. This bug didn't exists in previous gnome versions. Steps to reproduce: 1. go the the 2. DISPLAY 2. open nautilus via Places->somewhat Actual results: nautilus is openend on DISPLAY :0.0 instead of :0.1 Expected results: Does this happen every time? yes Other information:

Fixed in trunk. 2009-03-18 Cosimo Cecchi <cosimoc@gnome.org> * src/nautilus-application.c: (open_window), (open_windows), (message_received_cb), (nautilus_application_startup): Spawn the Nautilus windows on the right scren instead of always using the default one (#555078).
Is this also fixed in the 2.26 branch? If not, could it?
There's no 2.26 branch yet, we will use trunk for 2.26.1.
