I am facing this issue on new version of Ubuntu 11.10. When I am opening applications they are opening at different screen locations like right top, right bottom, left bottom etc. Please check the screen shot to see the issue.

Normally when we open an application it should open at the center of the screen. Specially I am facing this issue with nautilus. Each time I have drag it to the center to work.

Please suggest solution to resolve this issue. enter image description here

First, install compizconfig-settings-manager Install compizconfig-settings-manager.

then open it and search for something like "Put Windows" or "Place Windows". In it change the option from smart placement to center.
