David <da**@me**.nz> writes: "[...]is there a way to inform the program 'where' to place the popup dialogs? At the moment it places them in the centre of the screen, which normally isn't a problem, but I run a Xinerama desktop so I end up with half the dialog on one window, and the other half on the other side - it makes them quite hard to read.[...]" I am not sure how this relates to multi-head support, which, if I am not mistaking, is supposed to be introduced in either Gnome2.2 or gtk2.2 ?

Other cool improvements are many nice fixes to the treeview wideg and .ico and .ani support for gdkpixbuf. Read the full announcement here "

Multihead on X11 should work now. Only tested with 1 screen and 2 monitors. I guess multiple graphics cards are required for more screens. not sure though.
