In version 9.04 with 2 nVidia graphics cards (GeForce 7600 GT) and one flatscreen monitor on each card the "Separate X Screens" configuration is WACKO. Most programs when initiated from Screen 1 open on Screen 0 instead of Screen 1. Some programs (such as Firefox) when initiated from Screen 1 open on Screen 1. However, then a new instance of Firefox cannot be initiated from Screen 0.
I understand that earlier versions of Ubuntu used to support nVidia's separate X screens correctly. I need to use separate X screens.
1. Can someone tell me which versions of Ubuntu support separate X screens correctly?
2. It looks like this bug is being tracked. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339783 Can someone report if a fix is in the near future?
