Title: Half screen display on primary when extending Status in On-the-fly display switcher: New Status in Unity: Incomplete Status in “disper” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When going from single mode to extend using 'disper -e -t right', the new display shows up fine, but the existing/primary display shows the bottom half black, and the display area seems to be 'shifted up' 50%, so I only see the bottom half of my desktop on the top half of the monitor. I'm using MBP 5,3 with a Mac Cinema external display with disper 0.3.0. This does not happen consistently. Maybe once every 30 times I use 'disper -e'. Once it does happen, it seems to repeat every time I switch modes, until I restart Xorg. $ disper -v -e -t right Enabled plugins: auto-detected displays: DFP-0, DFP-2 resolutions of DFP-0: 320x175, 320x200, 360x200, 320x240, 400x300, 416x312, 512x384, 640x350, 576x432, 640x400, 680x384, 720x400, 640x480, 720x450, 640x512, 700x525, 800x512, 840x525, 800x600, 960x540, 832x624, 960x600, 1024x768, 1152x864, 1360x768, 1440x900 adding auto-select metamode: :: DFP-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0, DFP-2: nvidia-auto-select +0+0 associating displays: DFP-0, DFP-2 associating displays: DFP-0 adding auto-select metamode: :: DFP-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0, DFP-2: nvidia-auto-select +0+0 associating displays: DFP-0, DFP-2 associating displays: DFP-0 resolutions of DFP-2: 320x175, 320x200, 360x200, 320x240, 400x300, 416x312, 512x384, 640x350, 576x432, 640x400, 680x384, 720x400, 640x480, 720x450, 640x512, 700x525, 800x512, 840x525, 800x600, 960x540, 832x624, 960x600, 896x672, 928x696, 960x720, 1024x768, 1152x864, 1360x768, 1280x960, 1440x900, 1280x1024, 1400x1050, 1600x1024, 1680x1050, 1600x1200, 1920x1080, 1920x1200, 1792x1344, 1856x1392, 1920x1440, 1280x720, 2560x1440 preferred resolutions for displays: DFP-0: 1440x900, DFP-2: 2560x1440 adding auto-select metamode: :: DFP-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0, DFP-2: nvidia-auto-select +0+0 associating displays: DFP-0, DFP-2 adding metamode: :: DFP-0: 1440x900 +0+0, DFP-2: 2560x1440 +1440+0 setting xinerama info order: DFP-0, DFP-2 associating displays: DFP-0, DFP-2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/disper/+bug/938738/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages Post to : dx-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
