Bug#1001674: x11-common: Multiple monitors and starting app with window maximized
Package:
x11-common
Version:
1:7.7+22
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where
appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
I have a windows computer with multiple monitors. I typically run
applications on Raspbian via X windows. I recently installed
Raspbian Bullseye on a Pi 4 and launched Libreoffice Calc via X
windows. It launched but it kept flickering on the screen. It would
go full screen and then get smaller and then go full screen and then
get smaller. It flashed back and forth between these two sizes and I
had to kill it.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I booted to the Raspbian desktop with a directly connected single
monitor and launched Calc and it worked fine but I noticed it was
full screen. I made it not full screen and closed it. I then
launched it via X windows and it ran just fine when not full screen.
I went back to the directly connected monitor and launched it and
made it full screen and closed it. Again I launched it via X
windows and experienced the same flashing behavior. I tested this
scenario on Raspbian Buster and it worked fine regardless if it was
full screen or not.
* What was the outcome of this action?
* What outcome did you expect instead?
