[Bug 824099] Re: Max GL texture size can break multi-head
This bug was fixed in the package gnome-desktop3 - 3.3.5-0ubuntu1 --- gnome-desktop3 (3.3.5-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low * Sync with Debian. Remaining changes: * New upstream release. - GnomeRR: - Use GDK to get work area - gnome_rr_screen_new() now creates a singleton for the specified GdkScreen - GnomePnpIds: Add object to get the vendor name from PNP IDs * debian/libgnome-desktop-3-2.symbols: Updated for above changes * debian/patches/02_refuse_to_break_GL_compositors.patch: - Check whether Unity is running and if so refuse to configure a multi-head setup larger than GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE. Works around breakage when using Unity on such a setup, which is as much as we can do to fix (LP: #824099) at this point. In 12.04 this should be dropped in favour of making Unity work properly. * debian/control.in: - Add libgl1-mesa-dev and dh-autoreconf to Build-Depends for above patch. - Bump minimum xrandr to 1.3 * debian/libgnome-desktop-3-2.install: Install check_gl_texture_size * debian/rules: - Use dh-autoreconf to regenerate build system to pick up changes from patch. * debian/watch: watch for unstable releases gnome-desktop3 (3.2.1-3) unstable; urgency=low * Upload to unstable. * debian/control.in: - Tighten dependency on gnome-desktop3-data again. - Change section of gir1.2-gnomedesktop-3.0 to introspection. gnome-desktop3 (3.2.1-2) experimental; urgency=low * debian/control.in: - Loosen the dependency on gnome-desktop-data for now such that libgnome-desktop-3-2 is installable in parallel with libgnome-desktop-3-0 gnome-desktop3 (3.2.1-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream release. - Link against -lm for sqrt. Closes: #640437 * debian/watch: - Update to version 3. - Track .xz tarballs. * debian/control.in: - Use Section: libs for gir1.2-gnomedesktop-3.0. - Drop (Build-)Depends on libstartup-notification0-dev. - Add Build-Depends on libxext-dev. - Update Vcs-* URLs. - Bump Build-Depends on intltool to (= 0.40.6). * debian/rules: - List missing files. - Include utils.mk for list-missing. - Drop clean-la.mk since we don't install any .la files. * debian/libgnome-desktop-3-dev.install: - Remove .a file, static libraries are no longer built by default. * Update libgnome-desktop-3 library package for the SONAME bump 0 → 2. -- Jeremy Bicha jbi...@ubuntu.com Mon, 06 Feb 2012 13:25:25 -0500 ** Changed in: gnome-desktop3 (Ubuntu Precise) Status: Triaged = Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-desktop3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/824099 Title: Max GL texture size can break multi-head To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/824099/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 824099] Re: Max GL texture size can break multi-head
Ok, it looks like this will be relatively easy; there's already support for failing to configure displays when the framebuffer gets bigger than the maximum virtual size. Adding a check to fail when the framebuffer gets bigger than the max GL texture size *should* be straightforward. ** Changed in: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu Oneiric) Status: Confirmed = In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/824099 Title: Max GL texture size can break multi-head To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/824099/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
