Icons appear on incorrect screen no matter what

[MrTrip]

My desktop icons just love to be stuck on the far left screen. It doesn't matter what I do...

My menus are all in the correct location, on my right screen, and I'd like to have my Windows VM on my left screen, but my desktop icons are showing up over there... how do I get them to show default on my right screen?

Googled the problem for the last hour came up with nothing.

might be something useful in mateconf-editor perhaps

also what videocard/drivers are you using?
nvidia with twinview metamodes works fine for me..perhaps u have some other setup for ur dualscreen configuration

I'm using an nvidia card.

I'm also using the twinview setup, however my desktop icons and any new window appear on my left screen, even though my right screen is set as my primary x desktop screen.
