xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 4480 x 1600, current 4480 x 1600, maximum 4480 x 1600

It's using the size of the windows 'virtual' desktop....

It's adding them together even though I noted on the Xserver's startup....


ddxProcessArgument - Initializing default screens
winInitializeDefaultScreens - primary monitor w 2560 h 1600
winInitializeDefaultScreens - native DPI x 120 y 120
winInitializeDefaultScreens - Returning....
It's when it gets to adjusting for Window's mode:
 winDetectSupportedEngines - Windows NT/2000/XP
[ 37795.345] winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw installed
[ 37795.345] winDetectSupportedEngines - DirectDraw4 installed
[ 37795.391] winDetectSupportedEngines - Returning, supported engines 00000007
[ 37795.391] winSetEngine - Multi Window or Rootless => ShadowGDI
[ 37795.391] winAdjustVideoModeShadowGDI - Using Windows display depth of 32
bit
s per pixel
[ 37795.391] winAllocateFBShadowGDI - Creating DIB with width: 4480 height:
1600
 depth: 32
----
(note the right monitor, being a TV, is only 1080 high, so the 1600 is
certainly untrue...but 
I guess that's how windows is piecing it together....)...

Are you running your monitors on linux?....  

That may be the crux... I usually use a windows desktop, and run my suse on my
server.

I use the server as my windows workstation's back-end...
When I run yast, it's in a securerCRT window doing something like
sudo yast2&
..
I just tried, 
sudo yast2 --geometry 1920x1600
---
It did make the initial window smaller, but the initial window has never been a
problem.
Trying it without any -geometry gets me about 45% of my primary monitor width.

It's anything I launch after that.
The initial window comes up fine without the geometry arg.
Why the initial window comes up @ <50% my 2560 screen ...dunno but it's
everything
launched from that launcher window -- those are the ones that are about 3 times
as wide ..

The geometry is apparently ignored for subsequent windows so that's not really
a work
around either...
