I ran a few more test cases to narrow things down. "Works" means I see the background wallpaper + icons. "Doesn't work" means I don't see those items.
1. (Original configuration) Dual Head: 1280x1024 and 1680x1050: doesn't work 2. Single head: 1280x1024: works 3. Dual head: both at 1280x1024: works 4. Dual head: 1024x768 and 1280x1024: doesn't work Here are the relevant portions of my xorg.conf that I changed to run those tests (these are from my "Screen" section): # test 1 - no worky Option "MetaModes" "CRT: 1280x1024 +1680+0, DFP: 1680x1050 +0+0" (For test 2, I simply commented out the TwinView and MetaMode lines.) # test 3 - worky! Option "MetaModes" "CRT: 1280x1024 +1280+0, DFP: 1280x1024 +0+0" # test 4 - no worky Option "MetaModes" "CRT: 1024x768 +1280+0, DFP: 1280x1024 +0+0" Hope this helps. Also, if the bugfixer lives in Manhattan, beers are on me. :) ** Summary changed: - [gutsy] Background wallpaper + desktop icons disappear when compiz runs + [gutsy] In a dual head setup with different resolutions, background wallpaper + desktop icons disappear when compiz runs ** Tags added: compiz desktop effects resolution -- [gutsy] In a dual head setup with different resolutions, background wallpaper + desktop icons disappear when compiz runs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/160226 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
