Comment 51 for bug 331369

Daniel: it does appear that if your panels are at the bottom then the
notifications would display at the top right of your virtual display.
If moving the panel to the top bothers you, can you perhaps move your
larger monitor to the right? Just an idea...

I can now confirm that this bug is fixed for me at least...I switched to
2 X displays with Xinerama. You lose 3D acceleration, but I wasn't
using that anyway.

Thanks Devs!
