Description Martin DiViaio 2010-11-15 22:42:22 CET 
Problem:
In a three monitor environment I can not get panels to appear on screen #2 at all and panels that I set on screen #3 disappear if I attempt to move them back to screen #1. I do not have any problems placing panels on screen #1.

If I do not remove the new panel and restart X the panel will not start and I have to use the Settings editor to remove the configuration for it before I can get it to start.

This may be a duplicate of http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4379 or http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2130 but I am not sure since these bugs are for single monitor environments.

I have cleared all of my local settings by removing ~/.config, ~/.cache and ~/.local and I am getting the same results.

I also use Compiz-Fusion with Emerald but this problem happens without it turned on.

I use the startx command to start the X server.

02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C77 [nForce 750a SLI] (rev a2) (Has center monitor, screen #1)

Comment 1 Nick Schermer editbugs 2010-11-15 23:25:12 CET 
Next time, out all the output in a text file and attach it to the bug.

Could you run the panel with with "PANEL_DEBUG=1 xfce4-panel" and attach the output?

requested debug output of panel


I ran the panel with PANEL_DEBUG=1 as requested. I then started the Panel Preferences dialog; added a panel; moved it to screen #3 and back to screen #1.

I then removed that panel and added a second panel and tried to move it to screen #2 and back to screen #1.

Interestingly the panel from screen #2 did move back to screen #1.
Comment 3 Nick Schermer editbugs 2010-11-17 11:38:31 CET 
Thanks for the log, will look into this. Next release of the panel will also print the complete display layout (screens, monitor, sizes, output names,..) to the panel log, so for me it will be easier to understand the users' setup.
Comment 4 Nick Schermer editbugs 2010-12-07 20:28:41 CET 
Could you create a new log with the latest devel release, that will give me some more insight what is going on. Thanks in advance.

I wanted to give you a quick update. . . 

I attempted to upgrade to the GIT repository version using the xfce-dev overlay available in Gentoo. The update of panel, specifically, fails every time at the automake step. This is unrelated to this bug and probably an issue with the overlay so I'm not going into detail here.

Thanks.

debug output from development version


Ok, after some head-scratching I managed to get the development version installed. I've attached the debug output.

Here is what I did while it was running:

Started the settings program.

Added a panel.

Moved it to screen 2 (it didn't appear on screen 2).

Moved back to screen 1 (it appeared on screen 1).

Moved it to screen 3 (it appeared on screen 3).

Moved it back to screen 1 (it appeared on screen 1).

I repeated this then removed the panel.

It looks like most of the original problem is fixed except for why the panel doesn't appear on screen 2.

Thanks.

Fix thinko in screen check.

Could you try the patch attached, and if it doesn't work attach the output with the patched version.
