The two I mentioned. I consider them serious, although the wallpaper is
not that important, but it is not ok ether.

More problems:
      * Although I want cloning, the panel is only on the large screen,
        even if I select "Span monitors".
      * Once I uncheck the small screen, the desktop is expanded to the
        big screen. When I check the small screen again it is not
        getting back to it's initial state but some parts are cut off.
