I did some more testing and discovered a strange behaviour. The problem seems to be related to the "scale display" setting. It is set to "only when fullscreen" by default. If I set it to "never" before switching to fullscreen, the problem is stil there
If I set it to "always" before switching to fullscreen, fullscreen mode works. Interestingly, if I leave fullscreen after entering it on setting "always", I can change "scale display" to "never" or "only when fullscreen" and switching to fullscreen works now, too. (Until the next time I start virt-manager). It seems there's a state somewhere, either in virt-manager or in metacity which is only set when using the "always" mode. I hope that helps. So now at least I've got an easy workaround. -- Unable to enter fullscreen if guest desktop size == host desktop size https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/512679 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
