Maya 2011: Window placement on Linux

Hey all, I’m using the latest release of Maya 2011 on a Linux box. When opening up the Outliner as a seperate window, and not in a Panel view, it is remaining on top of the main Maya window. The expected behavior is to have the selected window be ‘on top’ of any deselected windows. Going to ‘Maya/Window/Raise Main Window’ does not solve the issue. Does anyone know how to resolve this simple yet distracting behavior?

Cheers,
DSD
