DamnVid starts on wrong monitor

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 with a dual monitor setup.

My secondary monitor (actually my TV, which isn't always on) is on my left hand 
side, and my primary monitor is on my right hand side.

DamnVid keeps opening on the secondary monitor.

I'm not good with patches, so I hope I did it correct.

This patch makes the window open on the correct (primary) monitor.

Wouldn't this position DamnVid always on the corner of the screen?
Anyway, the window position/size behavior can be set in the preferences ("Main 
window"), you can set it to "Remember position" and it should work, I hope.

Yes, but my patch is just to get it on the correct monitor.  The .Center() or 
.MoveXY() which comes later (depending on the mentioned setting) _should_ take 
care of the positioning on the monitor.

Alright, merged~ (changes will show up next time I commit... which is going to 
be in a while because I have changed a lot of stuff around)
