Xpra: Ticket #1025: Xpra managed application switches workspaces with multiple monitors

Using Xmonad on Ubuntu 14.04. Dual Monitor setup,

This means I have different virtual workspace on each monitor horizontally.

Not all the time, but often - if I move my mouse between monitors (which makes the workspace my mouse is in active), the xpra application window, will move to the other workspace (and therefore monitor).

It happened *all* the time, when I use shortcut keys to make active the workspace on the other monitor (Meta+E and Meta+W).

Interestingly - this does not happen on 14.x or 16.x

Interesting bug, but the workspace code is so messy that the fix will likely be: use 0.14 or 0.16!

I'm happy to use 0.16 if we can work out #1024 :) The GTK rendering in 0.14.0 is uuurk ;)

FYI: the fixes were probably the ones in #895.

r11166 disables the workspace code by default in 0.15.x, please close this ticket if that fixes the problems for you.

Feel free to re-open if you still have problems.

FYI - not sure what you did, but I'm not seeing the issue in 0.15.9!
