Description Samuel Verschelde 2016-09-12 15:00:47 CEST
I have two screens, one with a high resolution and one with a low one.

sddm first draws its screen on the bigger screen, but then adjusts to the lower resolution one which gives mixed results on the bigger screen.

See attached screenshot to see what I mean.

With both a 1600x900 and a 1920x1080 screen, there's no ugly mixed result here with sddm-0.14.0-13.mga6.

In one screen the SDDM login screen appears nicely centred, in the other it appears nicely, but off-center.. the latter is something different than the issue stormi had, and probably not fixable (and I don't care :-þ )
