[winswitch] Trouble with xpra 0.13

Mon May 26 15:19:20 BST 2014

Just moved to xpra 0.13 and I'm hitting a couple problems:

- I have my windows on desktop #2, but when I open a new window, it keeps
showing up on desktop #1.

- I have my encoding set to PNG (24/32 bpp), but there are moments when the
graphics look fuzzy (as if one of the compressed encodings is being used).

Both my client and server are Ubuntu 12.04. There's nothing that stands out
to me in either the client or server default logs.
