Thanks Chris for your patch "Sample fix for panning/scaling". openSUSE Linux users can test Xorg server (package xorg-x11-server) with this patch included. openSUSE users find the temporary and experimental openSUSE repository here:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/bjoernv:/branches:/openSUSE:/12.2:/Update/standard/ I find the old panning feature very useful. With an old "ATI Radeon Mobility 9200" graphics card, I can extent the 1024x768 desktop until 4096x4096. With an more recent "ATI Radeon HD 3450" I can extend until 8192x8192. Unfortunately the support for panning within the KDE desktop poor. I miss special maximize and fullscreen functions for big virtual screen. My xrandr setting for testing (3072x768 virtual desktop on a 1024x768 Laptop (LVDS) screen): xrandr --output LVDS --panning 3072x768 I have no problems with touchpad and external mouse. -- 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
