Virtual desktop (screen pans with mouse)
I've got my resolution set to 1600x1200 (which my monitor and video card support) but noticed after installing SUSE 9.2 on this machine that my desktop is 'cut off' a little bit at the top or bottom. By that I mean that if the top is cut off a little bit (.25" or so) and I move my mouse to the top of the screen, the screen will move to show the missing portion (like a virtual desktop that extends beyond the existing screen). How do I get rid of this behavior and not have the screen extend beyond the defined desktop? I thought I remembered an option for this somewhere, but looking in the Desktop settings, Control Center, screen size & resolution app, etc. I could not find it. Would someone point me in the right direction? Thanks. -- Trey Sizemore trey@fastmail.fm
This effect happens when you have the Virtual Size of your screen set to a value than the physical size. Look at the X-Windows config, check both... Jerry On Friday 28 January 2005 14:42, Trey Sizemore wrote:

Yes, I think that's where I remember seeing it before, the xorg.conf file. I'll check that out when I get home today. Thanks. -- Trey Sizemore trey@fastmail.fm
