Not properly functioning with right-hand primary monitor

Open Forage opened this issue 12 years ago • 7 comments

I've already reported this issue on the GNOME extension site only to find your request to report them on github afterwards.

I love the extension, but it's not functioning properly when the right-hand monitor is the primary one. Result:

  • The left-hand monitor gets two "Activity" buttons next to each other in the left corner.
  • The clock is placed on the left-hand monitor only
  • All icons (sound, network, etc) are only placed on the left-hand monitor and twice.

The user menu is the only thing places correctly, in the right corner on the right-hand monitor.

Using Ubuntu 12.10 GNOME remix (x64).

Can you provide more details on your configuration, I have been unable to reproduce this issue.

I'll be happy to. Not sure what you need to know exactly, but here's a start:

  • OS: Ubuntu 12.10 GNOME remix (x64)
  • GPU: ATI/AMD Radeon HD 6950 (proprietary Catalyst 12.11 beta 8)

How about the actual configuration of monitors?

do you have

  • monitor 2 set as the primary

or

  • monitor 1 set right of monitor 2

can you also post the output from xrandr -q

Oddly enough, I can't tell you for certain if the primary monitor is monitor 1 connector-wise. ASUS neglected to provide a manual for my card (ASUS EAH6950/2DI2S/2GD5), even on their site. No clues are present on the backplate.

can you run this command in looking glass (alt+f2, lg) Main.layoutManager.monitors[Main.layoutManager.primaryIndex].x

The result is: 1280

I've turned the monitors around, just to try and see if the connection used makes a difference. Right-hand monitor is still primary, xrandr output now has DFP10 and DFP11 switched and the looking glass command returns the same. The issue, however, remains exactly the same.
