Bug#546994: dual screen : kde unable to use more than the smallest height of the 2 screens
Package: kde
Version: 5:48
Severity: important
When using 2 screens without xinerama (I have 2 Desktops) :
Screen 0 has 1024*768
Screen 1 has 1280*720
X (and Gnome) can use both screens normally, but KDE and KDM will limit the height of Screen 0 to 720
pixels, although the background image still fills the screen.
That means not any graphical element will be shown below 720 pixels, as if Screen 0 had not more
height than Screen 1.
This applies to the desktop, but also to KDM, and I repeat, is related to KDE as Gnome does not suffer
from this. I did not have this problem with Etch.
With love and admiration,
Olivier
