Summary: Desktop background not drawn correctly in xrandr dual
screen mode
Product: openSUSE 11.0
Version: Final
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: GNOME
AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: michael.monreal@xxxxxxxxx

Found By: ---


If I connect an external screen to my notebook and use xrandr to use it as a
second display (instead of clone mode) the wallpaper on my notebook gets cut
off and parts of the screen are left without a background. Moving windows etc
in this area leaves behind garbage.

My setup:
- notebook with 1280x800 screen (intel i965 graphics)
- external screen set to 1024x768 and places on the left
- "Virtual" screen size is set to (1280+1024=) 2304 800

What actually happens is that nautilus the wallpaper using the same screen
width, e.g. even on the 1280 screen the wallpaper ends after 1024 pixels, like
on the other screen where this is correct.

I will attach a screenshot. To the left you see the external screen, to the
right the internel one. Xterms have been placed to show where each screen ends.
Note the stripe on the far right, which is the area without a background.
