After installing x11-libs/gtk+-2.14.7-r2 I am no longer able to move windows from my primary monitor to my secondary monitor. Part of the window remains on the primary monitor. I have experienced this before when I did not have the xinerama flag set for an older version of gtk+. I was able to temporarily "fix" this problem by downgrading to gkt+-2.12.11 but this solution is far from ideal. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge gtk+ 2. 3.

hum I have a xinerama setup but only with xrandr-1.2 capable drivers and it works just fine. I see that you have an intel, which version of the intel driver are you using ?

erm, what flavor of xorg are you running exactly ? Some sort of mix between 1.3 and 1.5 or something else ?
I have x11-base/xorg-server 1.3.0.0-r6 installed, which is the last one unmasked for amd64. I'm hesitant to upgrade to 1.5 at this point unless I have a really good reason as it is my understanding that it will take a bit of reconfiguring to get it to work, and this is my primary work laptop.
@x11, any idea ?
Please provide your xorg.conf, your Xorg.0.log and paste the output of the "xrandr" command. Thanks

I've included my xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log The xrandr command I use xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1280x800 --pos 0x0 --output VGA --mode 1024x768 --pos 1280x0 has no output.

I downgraded to to Xorg 1.3 as something in 1.5, perhaps the intel driver, was causing the UI to lock up momentarily and it was getting on my nerves. Felt like being back on a windows box. I am now using x11-base/xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r6 x11-apps/xrandr-1.2.2 x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.1.1 and here is my xrandr output with my standard CRT hooked up Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2304 x 800, maximum 2720 x 900 VGA connected 1024x768+1280+0 (normal left inverted right) 0mm x 0mm 1440x900 60.7 1280x800 60.1 1152x864 75.0 1152x768 54.8 1024x768 70.1* 60.0 832x624 74.6 800x600 72.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 640x480 72.8 75.0 59.9 LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right) 0mm x 0mm 1280x800 60.2*+ 1152x768 54.8 1024x768 85.0 75.0 70.1 60.0 832x624 74.6 800x600 85.1 72.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 640x480 85.0 72.8 75.0 59.9 720x400 85.0 640x400 85.1 640x350 85.1 TMDS-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right) TV disconnected (normal left inverted right)
Is there any more information I can provide? I'm getting a bit anxious about this as it is now preventing me from upgrading other packages...
Well, since the xrandr output you gave was for 1.3, it's kind of hard to compare. Please upgrade again to 1.5.3, paste the output of the "xrandr" command and we'll try to figure out what happens. Thanks
The original output I gave for xrandr, in comment 11, is from 1.5.3 I will upgrade again if it is necessary but I am experiencing this problem in both 1.3 and 1.5 I'd rather avoid upgrading as, like I said, I have a separate issue that I believe is related to the new intel driver which is require for 1.5
Hum, I thought only Xorg 1.5 had the bug. I guess it's not a Xorg issue then. Taking off x11@g.o from CC. As for gtk, I have no idea what they put in there and how it changed compared to plain-old xinerama support. I think it's worth reporting this bug to upstream Gnome developers. As for the Xorg 1.5 issue you're having, please upgrade to 1.5.3 whenever possible as it's currently becoming stable and I *do* intend to kick the older server out of portage. Please file a bug for that so we can help you fix it. Thanks

I resolved this problem by upgrading to XFCE 4.6 it turned out to be a problem with the window manager, not GTK+ I'm not sure why downgrading helped but it turns out that XFCE 4.4 was not xrandr aware. 4.6 is and upgrading to it solved the problem. I am unsure why it would work with one version of GTK+ but not another however.

iirc gtk-2.14 has some xrandr support changes so it might make sense that the downgrade seemed to help.

Closing Fixed then. Thanks for the follow up.
