(In reply to Alex Fiestas from comment #65) With the proliferation of hidpi laptops having scale properly working is becoming more important since it is the only way of using embedded and external displays with a decent experience.

Today I talked about this bug with Keith Packard.

Retested with the latest git. The patch indeed breaks constraining the mouse on the right side when keystone correction is active. However, the whole keystone correction feature is already so horribly broken that I'd just propose to drop it. The breakage is that, if you click something, the click will not go into a point that you intended to click.

I too can confirm that scaling doesn't work with radeon. On a laptop with intel driver, the following works fine, except the mouse pointer is confined to the mode area, but I believe that is a known xorg-server bug: xrandr --fb 1920x1080 --output eDP1 --mode 1600x900 --scale-from 1920x1080 The same command, adapted to the radeon output device doesn't work.

The bug is also relevant to scaling.

These are available for perusal at http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/Xorg/ . Among them is one instance of a scaling test, 1.2x1.2 applied to a 1440x900 screen. The largest fb size I tested was 3840x2400. The newest gfxchip used was a Intel 4000 series (G41). Others used are nv11, G84, rv200, rv250, rv380, i865G, i915G i945G. The highest resolution used was 1920x1080. Total success pairs there currently is 31, of which 14 are pre-bug and 17 are server 1.16rc1. KDE3 KDE4 dominate the DEs represented. A few are IceWM and Lxde. The only outright failure so far was on i945G and 1.16rc1 on both openSUSE 13.1 13.2, but after another system/xorg updates round those inexplicable failures apparently solved themselves. Among the overwhelming number of successes are many instances of various forms of painting and mouse pointer trouble among the configurations with the largest panning areas that always goes away if panning is disabled. However, such problems are common to both old servers and DEs as well as current ones. The painting problems don't show up in any of the screenshots. Except for the comment 44 reported failure of xorg.conf* to produce expected results, WRT to bounds and sizes at least, the 94929 patch seems to be doing what it needs to do. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881046 Title: Panning in a virtual monitor is not possible after upgrade to Ubuntu 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/881046/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Comment 43 applies to use of xorg.conf in attempting to produce desired X configuration, e.g. xorg.conf for Intel gfx containing: Section Device Identifier Default Device Option monitor-VGA1 Default Monitor EndSection Section Monitor Identifier Default Monitor Option DPMS off DisplaySize 405 253 # 120 DPI @ 1920x1200 virtual Option PreferredMode 1440x900 Option Panning 1920x1200 EndSection Section Screen Identifier Default Screen Device Default Device Monitor Default Monitor EndSection produces expected results for server 1.9.3, but not for server 1.16.0RC1. Functional panning matching that produced by the above xorg.conf can be at least mostly achieved in i915 via xrandr as follows: xrandr --dpi 120 --fb 1920x1200 --output VGA1 --mode 1440x900 --panning 1920x1200 or xrandr --fbmm 405x253 --fb 1920x1200 --output VGA1 --mode 1440x900 --panning 1920x1200 A remaining problem therefore exists that did not exist prior to the server changes made that made this bug report necessary in the first place, that xorg.conf no longer does what xrandr can, as xorg.conf used to be able to do. This is new with the 96204 patch, as with the 56408 patch and server 1.12.3, xorg.conf gets the job done as expected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881046 Title: Panning in a virtual monitor is not possible after upgrade to Ubuntu 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/881046/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It seems clear that at least analog hardware users who require panning and want or need to stick to FOSS solutions need to stick to out of support Xorg versions and/or out of support drivers, and/or ancient gfxchip technology (e.g. MGA), and/or cheap (and usually slow) hardware (e.g. # XGI Technology Inc. (eXtreme Graphics Innovation) Z7/Z9 (XG20 core), a slug at 24 bit, tolerable at 16 bit as long as not extending the desktop virtually as panning was made to do). It looks like users of supported FOSS software versions and modern competent gfxchips are out of options other than acquiring (digital?) displays big enough, or acquiring additional (digital?) video ports and (digital?) displays, to cover their otherwise virtual needs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881046 Title: Panning in a virtual monitor is not possible after upgrade to Ubuntu 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/881046/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I applied Mr. Bagwell's patch to Fedora 17 after receiving some guidance from Mr. Weir. I thank all who have posted for their contribution in resolving this long term regression. My specific steps were... 1. Obtain the source: yumdownloader --source xorg-x11-server- common.i686 2. Extract the RPM to a subdirectory structure (in my case, ~/source/xorg-x11-server-x.xx.x-y.fc17.src) 3. Extract the xorg-server-x.xx.x.tar.bz2 file (contained in the directory created in step 2) to source subdirectories of that directory (in my case ~/source/xorg-x11-server-x.xx.x-y.fc.src/xorg-server-x.x.xx) created in step 2. 4. Modify the rrcrtc.c source code in the randr subdirectory (~/source/xorg-x11-server-x.xx.x-y.fc.src/xorg-server-x.x.xx/randr) as Chris states. I had to apply the patch manually, however it's very straightforward. The following steps were issued from within the xorg-server-x.xx.x subdirectory created in step 3 above and presume you have all required development tools installed. 5. Command: ./configure --prefix=/usr. 6. Command: make 7. Command: sudo make install I performed these steps on version 1.12.2-2 as well as on 1.12.2-4 and after testing each patch, I reinstalled (yum reinstall xorg-x11-server-common.i386) standard code to verify repeatability. In each case, scanning/panning was enabled following application of the patch. I am running this on an Acer Aspire AOD257 which has (of course) an integrated trackpad. One issue I have noticed is that after application of the patch, the trackpad scrolling functions are disabled. That is to say, the trackpad continues to function as a mouse, but the finger drag along the right side of the trackpad no longer functions. Under touchpad-system settings (KDE desktop), the touchpad information indicates device not found.

FWIW: I don't try to use randr directly to set up panning.

[Bug 881046]
I use xrandr for scaling to make a small netbook screen able to display
apps that don't fit in 1024x600 and noticed this regression over the
last year in 1.11. I finally decided to look closer since 1.12 didn't
seem to fix the issue and came across this report.
I looked at the revert commit to get idea of area that could possibly be
fixed and it seems like crtc_bounds() is probably a function that should
be returning a value related to panning/scaling.
I traced were xrandr output is querying the panning/scaling values it
displays and looks like comes from ProcRRGetCrtcInfo() and that function
makes use of RRCrtcGetScanoutSize() to scaling width/height to correct
size. Panning uses rrGetPanning().
To test the idea, I modified crtc_bounds to handle scaling case by
adding ProcRRGetCrtcInfo() call. It does seem to work and I've not
noticed a negative in limitted testing.
I patched a source RPM so I can't offer a real patch right now but here
is my modified version of function to get an idea:
static void
crtc_bounds(RRCrtcPtr crtc, int *left, int *right, int *top, int *bottom)
{
int width, height;
RRCrtcGetScanoutSize (crtc, width, height);
*left = crtc-x;
*top = crtc-y;
switch (crtc-rotation) {
case RR_Rotate_0:
case RR_Rotate_180:
default:
*right = crtc-x + width;
*bottom = crtc-y + height;
return;
case RR_Rotate_90:
case RR_Rotate_270:
*right = crtc-x + height;
*bottom = crtc-y + width;
return;
}
}

I reviewed the other patchwork patches just now. Patch 6209 in Comment 7 addresses panning part of issue in crtc_bounds() using same logic from ProcRRGetCrtcInfo(). If you combine my modification from Comment 17 with the patch 6209 then you'll get solution for both scaling and panning.

Looks like the regression was introduced when trying to fix a problem with the mouse going into space outside of the display, when you have two displays of different sizes joined together. Here's the bug I think Bryce referred to, and it looks like that broke panning. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20334 As Bryce says there are three proposed patches (!), so the best thing we can do is try and get upstream to prioritise it.

[Bug 881046] Re: Panning in a virtual monitor is not possible after upgrade to Ubuntu 11.10
The bug affecting dual monitors was to keep things from going off the edge of the screen of the smaller monitor. In fixing that bug the signal to pan in xorg was disabled due to the fact the mouse does not go off the screen to signal the need to scroll. Some apps will not work on small screens given they have buttons that go off the bottom of the screen. For now I have found a workaround for small monitors. I have been experimenting with FVWM and the EdgeScroll feature. This feature may take less video memory given I believe it does rely on the frame buffer so the virtual screen can be as big as you want (if I understand how frame buffers work?). It seems some expertise is needed to incorporate the panels/look and feel from other desktops but something is necessary to use apps where buttons go off the bottom of the screen. A little experimenting I am finding lxpanel works great with EdgeScroll enabled make sure lxpanel is set to StaysOnTop. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881046 Title: Panning in a virtual monitor is not possible after upgrade to Ubuntu 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/881046/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hello Jonathan! the bug reports look the same, but they are filed against different packages, namely one more general and one more specific.

[Bug 881046] Re: Panning in a virtual monitor is not possible after upgrade to Ubuntu 11.10
In the ubuntu-users mailing list somebody suggested that this may be a bug in the X server itself, caused by a fix to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20334 (Mouse shouldn't move into area outside the monitors). I don't know the internals of the xlib randr extension, but if the suggestion above is correct, how could a bug concerning a dual monitor setup affect panning on a single monitor? Is panning achieved by emulating a dual monitor setup on the same screen? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/881046 Title: Panning in a virtual monitor is not possible after upgrade to Ubuntu 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/881046/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 881046] [NEW] Panning in a virtual monitor is not possible after upgrade to Ubuntu 11.10
Public bug reported: When I go for a virtual monitor by issuing command xrandr --output LVDS1 --fb 1600x1200 --panning 1600x1200 on a monitor working at resolution 1024x768 (as I did before upgrading from Ubuntu 11.04 to Ubuntu 11.10), the WM bars on top and left side of the screen (in Unity) look like extending to the new area, but I cannot move the pointer to the new extra area and so I cannot pan. As far as I understood by reading around, this *could* be a bug in package xorg-server rather than in xrandr and *could* be related to the boundaries set for cursor position.
