https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=386545 Summary: Xinerama /randr: only cloned output possible; only partial output reproduced Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Beta 2 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: sndirsch@novell.com ReportedBy: christian.jaeger@rub.de QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Depends on: 374148 Found By: --- Hardware: Thinkpad X61s Eizo S2431 vial analogue input Problem: though extended desktop is configured in GNOME's resolution applet, output is cloned. Seemingly at random, sometimes the Eizo only displays a sector of the desktop (upper-left corner) at the correct 1920x-resolution (that I configured it to display)while the rest of the screen is black, and the laptop's TFT only displays that same sector (so the GNOME panel is unreachable on the desktop; at other times the laptops's TFT shows correctly a 1024x desktop and the Eizo reproduces that desktop in the centre of the screen. The desktops s o m e t i m e s cannot be arranged in the resolutioni applet but are shown as 100% overlapping; at other times they can be arranged but (of course?) this doesn't have any effect at all. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Shouldn't all this be configured 'auto-magically'? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

SaX2 is prepared for the static RANDR 1.2 configuration of intel and radeonhd driver. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I think I should have filed this bug under GNOME from the beginning because this is where the fault lies, not with randr: The sensational new gnome-resolution applet which is supposed to make Xinerama user-friendly is one big scam. If you would please re-assign the bug accordingly? Thank you. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Hmm, I just noticed that the config of comment #4 is already a static RANDR 1.2 configuration. Unfortunately there are at least two bugs in it. 'Option "LeftOf" "EXT"' and 'Option "PreferredMode" "1920x1200"' need to be moved to the other Monitor section ("Monitor[0]"). Would be worth a try. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
