What version of Ubuntu? On what hardware, specifically, the graphics
card? With what drivers? Configured how - multiple desktops, one large
desktop, Xinerama, nVidia TwinView, what?

I am running 11.10/64-bit on an AMD system with an nVidia GeForce 230
and I have 2 top panels, one on each screen, but one launcher, on the
left screen only. This means 2 different apps can have a menu bar
each, so long as they are on different screens, which is exactly the
way I like it.
