What tiling window manager do you use? I've been using Awesome but it completely messes up when dragging Chrome tabs on your non-primary monitor. It is very frustrating.

Or maybe the bug is in Chrome and has nothing to do with tabs and Awesome...

I also use Awesome WM, which is ... awesome. :-)

I think I see what you mean - is it the crazy flickering when you drag the newly created window around? I was able to get rid of that if I set the parent Chromium window status to "floating" (Mod+Ctrl+Space in Debian default config).

Sadly not that. What I mean is when Chrome is on my non-primary monitor the second you begin to drag a tag it pops out the window, goes to the primary monitor and refuses to be merged back into any Chrome window not on a primary monitor. It's really strange and quite obnoxious.
