Lxpanel Lubuntu, reserved space for my second monitor
I have a problem about reserved spaced for my LXpanel on one of my two monitors using Lubuntu 12.10.Bug symptoms:
After starting Lubuntu to one monitor setup
$ xrandrI switch to dual monitor set up by running
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1848, maximum 8192 x 8192
...
xrandr --output LVDS1 --auto --output VGA1 --auto --above LVDS1
Now I have LXPanel displayed on the left side of both LVDS1 and VGA1, which I like. However, maximizing the window on LVDS1 causes the LXPanel to cover the maximized window, so I cannot see the left bar of the maximized window.
Temporal work around:
Open Panel settings (by right clicking the LXpanel) and unchecked and rechecked again
the Advanced/Reserve space, and not covered by maximized windows
Todo:
a) Report it? Where?
b) Automate it together with the xrandr command
Btw. During searching for solution of this bug I have discovered how to restart the LXpanel at Lubuntu.
killall lxpanel
lxpanel --profile Lubuntu &
