Public bug reported: Lubuntu 20.04 QA-testing play on hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
1. Boot Lubuntu 20.04 daily ISO on box 2. I adjust displays (LXQt.Monitor.Settings) to match my setup (one above the other) In theory LXQt.Monitor.Settings will not allow for overlap (still possible in Lubuntu); I had displays NOT touch each other (ie. gap between) letting the 'apply' snap the displays so they were correctly touching 3. Change default (flurry) to (flipflop) 4. Click PREVIEW to display Expected Result: Images on each display not related to each other Actual Result: When the top display image touches the bottom of my 'upper' display, the color appears on my 'lower' display. The actual image on my 'lower' display is well away from top of screen. As the top image 'flips' and color squares no longer go 'off' screen; they also disappear from my bottom display. The effect is NOT unpleasant; it looks like reflection from the bottom (as colors (red, yellow, blue) are the same on both displays - but it's unintended. I've noted this behavior before & it was filed upstream to LXQt; they eventually blamed openbox. I've installed `sudo apt install xfwm4` then `xfwm4 --replace` to attempt to replace openbox with wfwm4 (whilst running 'live') and the issue remained still. I also swapped my displays (so my-top was at the bottom, and my-bottom was on-top) and xscreensaver now only hid one display - however I did get the top line of pixels on the display which was no longer covered by xscreensaver. This behavior has been noted before many times, but was linked to the xscreensaver only covering single display (http://launchpad.net/bugs/1814490) I have now separated the issue (top pixel line on wrong display) - however it's still possible they are linked. If displays are left-right placed; the pixel line appears still on the wrong display, but at side of display. This issue is not new (being noted on other bug reports as secondary noticed issue until today).
