2019-02-17 19:30 QA-Test Lubuntu 19.04 daily (live)
// the following is selected bits pasted from my QA-TEST comment
// note in prior cut/pastes I only pasted the bit relating to each specific
bug, but as they all relate (none occur until I change orientation of displays,
then all are annoying-bugs, but if I change back display.orientation they all
disappear) this will be all (without exceptions removed, eg. screensaver is
different issue)
dell [optiplex] 960 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd
5000/6000/7350/8350)
/ plan is some simple stuff, then change setup to my used setup (vertical
layout of my monitors)
// this is my most used system which has run Lubuntu 19.04 for all 2019; before
then was mostly XFCE (a Ubuntu install back when 17.10 was testing with Xubuntu
and Lubuntu added). I have been having fewer issues with display strangeness of
my installed system than prior QA-tests using 'live' so this will be focus
again today (as per recent hp8200 test)
pcmanfm-qt to play (expecting no issues before I re-arrange monitors, selecting
random devices, folders, minimize, maximize
firefox (ublock origin, stream utube as window, f11, fullscreen on each
monitor, maximize, minimize etc)
searching for an starting some music (dc7700 where I log this has poor speakers
& it's annoying me), found some so `vlc` will be playing music from now on
// then adjust displays to my vertical placement & re-do what I just did...
// note: possibly typos on this system, I'm having issues with this model.m kbd
browser & this dc7700 running ubu 14.04 (installed) that I normally don't have,
so apologies for any strange things..
ZERO issues at this point on either screen, everything performs perfectly (as
expected).
Closed pcmanfm-qt & firefox (vlc still running for background music)
Now change orientation of displays,
pref->lxqtsett->monitor.settings_set.position
DVI-1 is setup directly BELOW DVI-0 (my real setup has slight horizontal diff,
but that creates more issues I now ignore for qa-testing; vertical arrangement
is simpler to replicate)
drag VLC so it's full onscreen (only left part was visible - ignoring this)..
pcmanfm-qt is perfect on top (dvi0) screen, selecting different folders or
devices has no issue, selecting menus display as expected.. move it to dvd1
(bottom display) and warps/moves around screen partially obscured by panel &
part on display0, part on display1 -

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcmanfm-qt/+bug/1812342
if i maximize pcmanfm-qt (dvi1, was good on dvi0) it goes full width but is
only using ~2cm of display & so it useless
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxqt-session/+bug/1809201 .. on
minimize I get https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcmanfm-qt/+bug/1804329
This is my USED system, and yet don't suffer this. Yes my system is
hugely modified (xubuntu & ubuntu are installed, lots of apps, lots of
changes but mostly to xfce)...
..
opened qterminal (ctrl+alt+T) and maximized, fine on dvi0, but fullwidth & no
only top panel (no black area visible on maximized
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxqt-session/+bug/1809201)
..
i changed display orientation back to what it booted as (DVI0 on left, DVI1
just to right) and all maximize, minimize, menu showing & usable, etc issues
were solved... it relates only to monitor.position and most people will have
left-right I bet.
..
// note: primary bug mentions FIREFOX, but many programs do the same,
eg. Qterminal
** Summary changed:
- lubuntu 19.04 two displays, firefox maximized uses only part of 2nd display
+ lubuntu 19.04 two displays, programs maximized uses only part of 2nd display
** Description changed:
- 19.04 daily image QA testing x86
+ 19.04 daily image QA testing x86 & x86_64
+
+ Added additional info:
+ this bug was originally discovered on x86 & concentrates on firefox. It
occurs on other programs/windows (eg. qterminal, pcmanfm-qt) and occurs on
other systems (hp 8200 x86_64 qa-test, d980 x86_64 test & more...)
+ BIG NOTE: on original x86 dell latitude d610 the monitors were left-right
configuration, on x86_64 it only occurs (more recently) on a vertical
configuration; maybe a different issue, but the effect [from my [user]
perspective] is the same...
+ --- end additional added info.
dell d610 laptop, with external vga monitor setup as display-to-right of
laptop
(vga external has higher resolution than internal laptop display)
firefox on laptop monitor maximizes as expected.
when firefox window is on external monitor, it uses all the width, but
only 2/3rds of vertical landscape of display, where I'd expect/hope it
would use all of display.
// i've noted this before, but I didn't see lp bug report, sorry if duplicate
// but could also be just in notes in qa-testing comments
attached screen shows firefox window was drawn to height of htop window
(htop being on
