Shadowless panel in multi monitor setup

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

The fix is available for testing in ppa:vanvugt/unity
https://launchpad.net/~vanvugt/+archive/unity

Fix committed to lp:unity r1603.

And thanks for the fix Daniel!

To be more precise, the fix is not committed yet for an Ubuntu release. It is committed in the Unity project upstream though, so should appear in oneiric next time the code is pulled from upstream.

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/oneiric/unity/oneiric/view/head:/plugins/unityshell/src/unityshell.cpp#L495

we keep the status of both upstream and downstream the same for Unity bugs.

This bug was fixed in the package unity - 4.18.0-0ubuntu1
