I've got some video captures of the problem: http://wever.org/compiz-dualscreen-horizontal-3000x1200.ogg http://wever.org/compiz-dualscreen-vertical-1600x2250.ogg http://wever.org/compiz-dualscreen-vertical-1400x1818.ogg For horizontal-3000x1200, you can see the both compiz and applications events are accurately redrawn on the first monitor, but only compiz events are redrawn on the second monitor. For vertical-1600x2250, which also exceeds the 2048x2048 texture limitation, the same is true although a part of the second monitor redraws both ok. For vertical-1400x1818, which should be within the texture limitation, a similar result to vertical-1600x2250 occurs where only a part of the second monitor is redrawn. Some extra oddities: - this texture buffer, or atleast the rectangle covering both screens that redraws correctly, seems to change depending on the screen resolutions, ie it isn't fixed to 2048x2048, - never in dual-screen is my nautilus background rendered, except through the application-transparency of the gterm window, - even in single-screen sometimes the desktop background (infact everything but the current window) flashes black, i've seen this happen when an icon in gnome's system tray is blinking, - even in single-screen sometimes windows (more often maximised windows) just appear black or with the full desktop's background rendered within the window. When the background is rendered in the window instead of the application's contents the background is live regarding any changes to the real desktop background. ~mck -- "Traveller, there are no paths.
