Michael,

Can you please use Gnome3 with a dual monitor system in same (twin
desktop mode? Does this work for you? I've tried multiple systems and
have always the same issue. I've tried different graphical cards (same
constructor: NVIDIA) and different drivers (nouvea, nvidia). I'm sure it
is related to gnome-shell as the fallback mode is working just fine.

Cheers,
