gnome 3.2 notification bar behaviour

in gnome 3.0, the notification bar was always placed on the primary display. which was nice (the secondary display acting as an empty screen).

in gnome 3.2 the notification bar is placed on the bottom of the virtual desktop. which actually ruins the whole experience in my case.

especially since the popup windows appear offscreen (secondary display resolution is smaller than primary display).

is it possible to have the notification bar back on the primary screen?

Re: gnome 3.2 notification bar behaviour

I have exactly the same problem when I switched form gnome 3.0 to 3.2. I'm using nvidias drivers with twinview for dual monitoring. Is there already a possible fix for this?
