[Bug 444417] Re: gnome-do can't intellihide very well on multiple monitors of different sizes

[Chris S.]

How are your multiple monitors set up?  What hardware are you using
(actually, what drivers, nvidia binary, catalyst, opensource)?  I
think in all of the different drivers they will allow you to line up
where the screen edges are by dragging the monitor and aligning either
the bottom or top of the monitor to the other.
