Bug 4318

Hi, thanks for reporting this bug.
Assigned to the package maintainer.

Keywords: (none) => Triaged
Assignee: bugsquad => misc

This bug lacks some important information :
- what kind of setup do you have ( from a hardware point of view ) ?
- what driver is used ?
- does it occurs with another windows manager ?
- what does xorg logs say ?

And what do you mean exactly by kill dual monitor setup ? From what I can infer from screenshot, the issue is either "there is a black point" or "I have just one screen".

According to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=523296 , the issue is likely not in qemu, but in SDL or X.

> This bug lacks some important information :
> - what kind of setup do you have ( from a hardware point of view ) ?
 - ATI Technologies Inc RV670PRO [Radeon HD 3850]
 - two monitors (DVI-0, 1920x1080 on the right, and, DVI-1,  1680x1050 on the left)

> - what driver is used ?
 Module radeon: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
 compiled for 1.11.2, module version = 6.14.3

> - does it occurs with another windows manager ?
 there is another window manager for gnome3?

> - what does xorg logs say ?
 nothing special, will upload Xorg.0.log as attachment

> And what do you mean exactly by kill dual monitor setup? 
 the dual screen setup reverts to single screen (the left one) during qemu -full-screen 
 (different resolution usually) and back to the correct resolution on exit/quit, but the
 desktop then has shrinked to one display and the right monitor goes to sleep.

 just one screen it is

 could be, will test with some code then ...

just verified, issue is still present in Mageia2 Beta1 (and in latest Cauldron)

the secondary screen(s) is(are) turned off and not reactivated when leaving fullscreen.
a crude work around is to open the  'Displays' settings and manually turn the other 
screen(s) back on again.

screenshot of the dual head setup after qemu-kvm --full-screen

the issue got worse with latest Cauldron, the desktop gets messed up now as well.
the screenshot shows the remaining (primary) head with the default gradient background.
note the black area which covers part of the background.

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,
