https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=428976 Summary: Unable to switch back resolution in monitor resolution settings Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: michael.monreal@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- I had my beta1 vm running 1024x768 but changed to 800x600 using the gnome monitor resolution tool. This worked great but after that I was not able to switch back to 1024x768 and had to use yast/sax (choosing the 1024 resolution and pressing apply does nothing) -- 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.

If I restart the session (or just the app) it's back to 800x600. -- 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 just double checked. This is what really happens: - in a 1024 desktop, set to 800, apply => resolution changes - log out, log in => 800 desktop - now, set to 1024, apply => no change - close app, restart: still says 800 - restart session => 1024 desktop So, it actually changes the res 800->1024, but not on the fly (as 800->1024 does) -- 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.

It works for me fine outside of a VM. Other than that, the code currently does not actually check if setting the new video mode was successful (it's not entirely trivial, since the capplet doesn't do the mode change; instead, it asks gnome-settings-daemon to do the change asynchronously). -- 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.

Sadly I don't have a 11.1 beta installation on real hardware yet. However, I'm able to switch back to other resolutions just fine with the xrandr command line tool... so I'm not sure if this is likely to be a VM bug. -- 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.
