Public bug reported:
I have a Dell studio XPS laptop with an external monitor connected to
the VGA port. I want to be able to span my desktop across my laptop
screen and my external monitor. I used to be able to do this, but trying
it today shows it to be broken.
To reproduce:
Open Launcher > Launch "Displays" > uncheck "Mirror Displays" > Click
"Apply"
The following error message appears:
required virtual size does not fit available size: requested=(3840,
1080), minimum=(320, 200), maximum=(1920, 1920)
Click "Close"
This is followed by a second error message:
GDBus.Error:org.gtk.GDBus.UnmappedGError.Quark._gnome_2drr_2derror_2dquark.Code3:
required virtual size does not fit available size: requested=(3840,
1080), minimum=(320, 200), maximum=(1920, 1920)
