Package: libsdl1.2 Version: 1.2.13-3 Severity: important I have two monitors configured on my machine, and SDL programs that go to full screen behave weird: their (borderless) window is positioned halfway the second screen, so that I can see only the left half.
I suppose the idea was to put it in the middle of the total viewport. However, it seems left and right have been reversed, and so the right half of the window doesn't show on any screen. If that would happen, I would indeed see the entire window, but with a physical bar in the middle. I prefer it to use the same method as Gtk+, which makes the window full-screen on one monitor and ignores the other. As a workaround, I can disable one monitor before starting an SDL program, and re-enable it afterwards. This is annoying, though. I just tried reversing the screens (putting VGA-0 left of DVI-0), and that resulted in the same image on both screens, which is also acceptable (but because of physical limitations I don't want to reverse the screens, so it's not a permanant solution for me). Also, when exiting such a program, the screens are not restored to their original resolution. For completeness, here's my xrandr output: Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2880 x 1200, maximum 4000 x 4000 VGA-0 connected 1280x1024+1600+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 338mm x 270mm 1280x1024 60.0*+ 75.0 59.9 60.0* 1600x1024 60.0 1400x1050 60.0 1440x900 60.2 1280x960 74.9 70.0 60.0 59.9 1280x800 60.0 1152x864 75.0 74.8 69.8 60.0 1280x768 60.0 1152x768 54.8 1024x768 75.1 70.1 60.0 832x624 74.6 800x600 72.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 640x480 75.0 72.8 72.8 75.0 66.7 60.0 59.9 720x400 70.1 DVI-0 connected 1600x1200+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 408mm x 306mm 1600x1200 60.0*+ 59.9 1680x1050 60.0 1600x1024 60.0 1400x1050 74.9 70.0 60.0 60.0 1280x1024 75.0 59.9 60.0 1440x900 60.2 1280x960 60.0 59.9 1280x800 60.0 1152x864 75.0 74.8 1280x768 60.0 1024x768 75.1 70.1 60.0 832x624 74.6 800x600 72.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 640x480 75.0 72.8 72.8 75.0 66.7 60.0 59.9 720x400 70.1 S-video disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) -- I encourage people to send encrypted e-mail (see http://www.gnupg.org).
