[Bug 347758] Re: Maximized windows spans to both monitors
[Seems to be an -fglrx xrandr bug or something, based on last comment.] ** Package changed: metacity (Ubuntu) => fglrx-installer (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: fglrx-installer (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New ** Changed in: fglrx-installer (Ubuntu) Assignee: Bryce Harrington (bryceharrington) => (unassigned) -- Maximized windows spans to both monitors https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347758 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 347758] Re: Maximized windows spans to both monitors
Ok, I did the test, it was a little more complicated than just commenting out the entry in xorg.conf, I had also to purge fglrx packages for it to start. So, with the radeon driver, maximization works as expected, only on one monitor not both. But my gnome panel was moved to the second monitor (right) and I didn't find a way to put it back on the first one. Also I've noticed that in the display applet my monitors have their correct name displayed instead of "unknown" like with fglrx. Except for the misplaced panel (and no 3d :'( ), it works. I've reinstalled fglrx and retry, still the same problem. So it seems only related to fglrx and not ati-*. But in fact, like I said earlier, it worked with intrepid with ati big desktop feature... but on jaunty it seems not possible to use "big desktop" and I must use xrandr instead. ati-config complains: r...@trantor2:~# aticonfig aticonfig --initial --dtop=horizontal Uninitialised file found, configuring. Error: Options, e.g. --dtop and --desktop-setup, are not supported when RandR 1.2 is enabled So as I understand, I would need to disable RandR 1.2 for it to work... but I'm unable to do that, is there a way to disable RandR ? thanks -- Maximized windows spans to both monitors https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347758 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Hi, I personally don't know if the bug is in the radeon driver, I didn't try with it. But it happens with fglrx, but isn't it the window manager that handles maximisation ? what does the driver as to do with it ? (giving the correct resolution of the desktop I suppose, which would imply that's what is incorrect) Anyway, I'll try with the radeon driver (I simply have to put the device section in comment in the xorg.conf) and put here back the results. -- Maximized windows spans to both monitors https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347758 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 347758] Re: Maximized windows spans to both monitors
Well, if it's a bug in -fglrx there is probably little we can do. You mentioned you could reproduce it with -ati; can you attach a conf and log file from after reproducing it with -ati on Jaunty? Fwiw, I use -ati with dual screens and have never had this problem. ** Changed in: metacity (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- Maximized windows spans to both monitors https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347758 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

@Rick, hard to say, works fine for me on -ati so probably something particular with the user's setup. Without seeing their conf, log, etc. I couldn't hazard a guess. My experience with these kinds of issues is usually a configuration issue. -- Maximized windows spans to both monitors https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347758 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 347758] Re: Maximized windows spans to both monitors
I have the same problem here. Before on intrepid, I used the "big desktop" funcitonnality of the fglrx driver... but on jaunty, big desktop does not want to be enabled complaining about randr 1.2 being enabled. I've found no way to disable it and make aticonfig happy so I did try enabling with xrandr, added the virtual mode in the xorg.conf. But now as the bug reports, maximizing windows, maximize on both screen which render the thing unusable. ** Attachment added: "maximized window on both screen" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24565456/Capture.png -- Maximized windows spans to both monitors https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/347758 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
