Hi,

This is a followup for Debian bug 199520,
http://bugs.debian.org/199520

I'm doing bug triage for the Metacity package and I'm interested to know
if this xinerama bug still is valid.

Specifically, does metacity from unstable (currently 2.18.5) still have
these bugs? 

As I haven't got a xinerama setup, any information is appreciated.
