Not only do windows maximize properly, but also does the tray applet show correct resolution (1280x800) on mouseover as well offer a choice of screen resolution, screen rotation and refresh rate in the context menu.

I usually just xrandr --output VGA --off to fix it, but this is obviously a problem for when I want to use a projector

For me xrandr --auto works also as workaround -- 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.
