Package: gnome
Version: 1:2.22.2~4
Severity: normal
Dear GNOME maintainers,
On a Lenny system, GDM and GNOME use only 1280x800 pixels despite the physical
resolution of the screen being 1680x1050. As a result there are strange
artefacts with fullscreen, the lower taskbar is not at the bottom of the
screen, and both up and down task bars do not reach the right side. The
background image, however is correctly set to 1680x1050, and it is possible to
move windows in areas ignored by GNOME. The utility for changing screen
resolution does not display anyghing higher than 1280x800. The login screen to
enter password after the session has been locked for inactivity is invisible.
These problems do not appear with KDE. There is probably a communication defect
between GNOME and X ?
In case it helps, here is the output of xrandr:
