RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1870955

People

(Reporter: ivan.planinar, Unassigned)

Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:121.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/121.0

Steps to reproduce:

As the title says, I use Firefox in monitor 2.
However, when I restart/reboot/relog my system it's always in Monitor 1

Actual results:

Showing in the wrong monitor.

Expected results:

Should open where it last was.

Not sure why it listed X11 in (Linux x86_64; rv:121.0)- I'm clearly using Wayland as it's confirmed in about:support

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Widget: Gtk' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Component: Untriaged → Widget: Gtk
Product: Firefox → Core

Thanks for the report! Wayland apps can't position their windows, it's a core security feature of Wayland.
