Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu. Ubuntu 12.04 (precise) reached end-of-life on April 28, 2017.
See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases We appreciate that this bug may be old and you might not be interested in discussing it any more. But if you are then please upgrade to the latest Ubuntu version and re-test. If you then find the bug is still present in the newer Ubuntu version, please add a comment here telling us which new version it is in. ** Changed in: libxfixes (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to libxfixes in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1152754 Title: kwin fails to resize to fit to the NX window with this version of libxfixes3 Status in libxfixes package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: We use KDE under NX, and were happy to discover that the new libxrandr proposed in this bug-report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/libxrandr/+bug/985202 fixes the issue of kwin crashing when the NX window resizes. However, we now discover that it does not resize to fit the NX window either when the NX window is resized. Please see the attached screenshot for an example of what happens. However, there is a relatively easy workaround for this issue which unfortunately involves downgrading libxfixes3 to the version from Oneiric. Specifically, the package one needs to get is: http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/libxfixes3 The version numbers of the two packages are very close, so I decided to look at the diff between the sources for Oneiric and Precise, and I discovered that the only source-code difference is one patch which was added to Precise (which I'm also attaching). Something in that patch is what breaks the ability of kwin to resize to fit the NX window. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance!
