Regarding multiscreen awareness of Gnome-applications



Hello All,

	Gnome-applications do not appear to be multiscreen-aware.
	Some applications like "gnome-stones" or "gnome-calculator"
	show up on DISPLAY=:0.0. But, on DISPLAY=:0.1, gnome-calculator
	gave the following error :
=====
The program 'gnome-calculator' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 201 error_code 2 request_code 53 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error()
function.)
======

	This is a pattern observed consistently among  all 
	gnome-applications.

	This would be a very serious concern for applications to 
	perform in multiscreen environment as a lot of effort is
	going into multiscreen awareness of Sawfish which is  the
	default Window-manager with Gnome-2.0

- Could some ideas/opinions be shared which would help address this
  concern.......

- Thank you very much..
