Everything is compiled with xinerama support, but xinerama is NOT enabled in xorg.conf (i.e. I have two separate desktops). Xorg-server-1.3.0.0 seems to think that both screens are of same resolution (1280x1024), and as such reports the resolution incorrectly to the applications. Some examples: if I maximize a window in the second screen, it becomes bigger than the actual screen; some wallpapersetters have problems, too: wmsetbg (from the WindowMaker package) sets the wallpaper too big on the second screen, when told to use fullscreen. Curiously enough, media-gfx/feh seems to set the wallpaper correctly, regardless of the xorg-server version. X11-wm/windowmaker has the same problem, too; I didn't test the other window managers. Xorg-server-1.2.0 and earlier work correctly, no problems with these versions. alanh@fairlite.co.uk 2007-08-03 08:21:28 0000 you need to look at the new intel man page to configure things correctly as the xorg.conf file format has changed. You can also use the new xrandr tool to fix things up, so make sure you've emerged 1.2.0 of this tool. And then you can use the --output flags to set the video. But to make it permanent, you need to change the xorg.conf file. But this isn't a gentoo problem, it's an X configuration issue. Hope the above helps. billie@gentoo.org 2007-09-10 07:29:35 0000 (In reply to comment #1) > you need to look at the new intel man page to configure things correctly as the > xorg.conf file format has changed. > > You can also use the new xrandr tool to fix things up, so make sure you've > emerged 1.2.0 of this tool.

I would prefer a solution with makes changes to xorg.conf. Could you please direct us to the place where this changes are documented. "Intel man page" does not mean anything to me! Thanks, Daniel frlinux@frlinux.net 2007-09-23 13:27:31 0000 Hello, I second this bug. I have the same issue, using NVIDIA drivers with the following : - 1st display : Samsung 22' widescreen (16:10) - 2nd dispaly : Sony TV 32KDL3000 It doesn't work only for the TV, the Samsung behaves fine on scaling up. Please find my X.org configuration attached. I had to revert to xorg-server-1.2.0-r3 for now. frlinux@frlinux.net 2007-09-23 13:32:28 0000 Created an attachment (id=131699) xorg.conf with dual screen configuration This works on 1.2.0 but not 1.3.0 alanh@fairlite.co.uk 2007-09-24 13:56:37 0000 Can you attach a complete Xorg.log file ? bas@lijer.nl 2007-09-24 23:10:06 0000 (In reply to comment #3) > Hello, > > I second this bug.

Tonight i tried to find where the problem was in mplayer(from svn, not the gentoo-build). (Mythtv has the same problem, the latest xine seems to calc the resolution correct). XineramaIsActive() returns true, when it should return false. I dont have it enabled, and my xinerama useflags are disabled. When commenting/disabling the Xinerama part the resolution is just fine. bas@lijer.nl 2007-09-24 23:13:33 0000 (In reply to comment #6) > (In reply to comment #3) > > Hello, > > > > I second this bug.

Regards, Daniel frlinux@frlinux.net 2007-10-02 19:39:28 0000 Hello again, I do apologize, it did actually fix it by adding the file to the patch list. Reason it failed before is that I tried the old way as of : ebuild xorg-server-1.3.0-r1.ebuild unpack patched manually ebuild xorg-server-1.3.0-r1.ebuild compile ebuild xorg-server-1.3.0-r1.ebuild install Which didn't work. I just applied the patch to the updated 1.3.0-r1 ebuild and it works like a charm. Thanks for the fix. dberkholz@gentoo.org 2007-10-13 20:52:48 0000 Fixed in xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r2, thanks! 131699 2007-09-23 13:32 0000 xorg.conf with dual screen configuration xorg.conf text/plain
