Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

I have a dual head configuration, on the left monitor I have two panels, one of these
with the window-list applet. On the right monitor I have no panels.

In 8.04 all windows of a workspace regardless if it stayed on the left or right monitor, were
displayed in the window-list applet. In 8.10 the window entry from the right side don't show
up in the window-list applet if I move windows from the left to the right they disappear
in the window-list applet.

Looks like an old bug which pop up again
I found in the redhat bug tracker:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=138874

the problem was also reported in the ubuntu forum:
http://guide.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766027

The bug #260939 is similar but seems to be related to the video driver,
and is related to 8.04

Ubuntu 8.10/32bit
