Hola John Kirk!


Package: cinnamon
Version: 3.0.7-1
Followup-For: Bug #840348


If possible, it would be nice if you could just reply to the emails you
get, so
that they show up as part of the same conversation for us. When you do
the
"Followup-For" they create new conversations and make it hard to follow
which
mails belong to which issues.


Cinnamon-screensaver is 3.0.1-1
New user is created and screenshot is attached. Still unusable - half
of window
at bottom left.


That screenshot is confusing, is that all that was on the screen? Or
did it
somehow get cut?

Could you take a screenshot (for this same dummy user) that shows the
Display
tool?

Also, can you attach the output of xrandr?

Finally, is HiDPI getting selected automatically or have you selected
manually?

Hello,

The follow-ups have been done by the report bug tool. Probably a bug is
here since i used the reply button.

The screenshot was cut for reducing the size. It shows the full bottom
left corner of the screen (second screenshot from this bug report).

Now i can't take a screenshot from Debian testing (removed), but the
config is the same so there are 2 screenshots from Debian stable +
backported Cinnamon. I think they are actual since the bug is also here
(1 screenshot from this bug report).

HiDPI works from installation so it is selected automatically. User
interface scaling option is set to Auto.

I also ask you to consider this bug :
https://lists.debian.org/debian-backports/2016/09/msg00026.html

Best wishes,
John

 
 


Hello,

I can confirm that the bug is still in testing (as of today). Screenshot 2.
Looks like it thinks that the display is 4 times bigger and shows only
1/4. 

Best wishes, 
John

Screenshot is attached.



This also happens in the backported version.


ii  cinnamon-screensaver3.0.1-1 


This is a known bug in cinnamon-screensaver prior 3.0.0, and fixed in 3.0.0, 
are you sure you are running the reported version?


If in doubt, please restart your session, or start a new one with a different 
user.


Happy hacking,
