Linux Version has Bug with Dual ScreensBender2k1410/19/2009 - 19:05

I just installed and tested World of Goo on Ubuntu 9.04 32-bit.  I have dual screens and the World of Goo game was centered in the middle of both screens instead of centered in the middle of my primary screen. After I disabled my second screen, World of Goo worked fine.
