Description Michael Meeks 2008-01-28 12:02:00 UTC 
In SL10.3 if you log-in from a remote display; eg.

X -ac :0.0
DISPLAY=:0.0 ssh -Y <host>
gnome-session

then you get a panel with no main-menu.

Adding another one, and you notice it pops up instead on the native display [ ie. I'm logged in twice ].

Clearly it needs some of the magic goodness to set bonobo-activation environment variables such as DISPLAY correctly for multiple displays - steal that from nautilus or somesuch.
Comment 1 Michael Meeks 2008-03-28 12:34:33 UTC 
Nautilus does this, do we ?

	/* Need to set this to the canonical DISPLAY value, since
	   thats where we're registering per-display components */
	bonobo_activation_set_activation_env_value ("DISPLAY",
						    gdk_display_get_name (gdk_display_get_default()));

It was a part of getting the per-display stuff right.

HTH.

This seems to work fine in openSUSE 11.1.  Closing.
