For instance when multi-monitors are used, clicking "expand" spreads the application across multiple screens instead of the single monitor. This problem is especially noticeable with dual/triple head cards are used in conjunction with xinerama and lower level controls like nVidia's TwinView.

The idea here is to control the Xinerama geometry exported to clients when doing both multiple monitors per card and multiple cards. But the right solution to that is to split the geometry reported through the Xinerama protocol from the Xinerama dispatch multiplexer, and allow driver subsystems the ability to report their own geometry. Stuffing the desired geometry in xorg.conf is certainly a solution, but it's not something I want to ship lest people start relying on it. Taking this off the 7.4 blocker.

Closing as Won't Fix since Xinerama is no longer supported (xrandr is the preferred direction going forward.) ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: New => Won't Fix -- [patch] xserver-xorg-core: Fixes Xinerama Not Respecting Display Boundries https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110809 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
