and it was the same with other desktop ?

Component: Release (media or process) => RPM Packages
Version: Cauldron => 3

Comment 2 Dag Nygren 2013-05-29 05:40:54 CEST

What do you mean with other desktop?
Anyway the behaviour is a lot better with Mageia 3 final. Could have been the kernel version in Cauldron. Still no pop-up for setting up the additional screeen though.

Comment 3 Marja Van Waes 2015-03-31 16:03:26 CEST

Mageia 3 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status 4 months ago.
http://blog.mageia.org/en/2014/11/26/lets-say-goodbye-to-mageia-3/ 

Mageia 3 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia
please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia
and reopen this bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
