Package: marco
Followup-For: Bug #885947
Version: 1.20.3-1

(I send this out of reporbug because I can not use it because due to
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=905737)

Dear Maintainer,  on the regular disk, after updating marco to the
latest version 1.20.3-1 and returning the default Window Manager from
metacity to marco and restart, follow the same problem.
Even on a clean disk, after installing a fresh DVD image from scratch
(Official Snapshot amd64 DVD Binary-1 20190211-05:12), there are the
same symptoms.

As it seems to me a problem of the frequencies used for the refreshing
of the monitor, I have carried out several tests, discovering the following:

  + The installation from fresh DVD image chooses by default a
resolution of 1152x864 @ 75Hz: it does not work with marco but with
metacity.

  + After temporarily changing the Window Manager in tty2 with 'metacity
--replace' and going back to tty7 which looks good, I now change the
screen resolution (System / Preferences / Hardware / Screens) to another
lower resolution (1024x768 @ 75Hz ) or higher (1280x1024 @ 60Hz), and
restart ... and the problem disappears! having the latest version of marco.

For the above, I think the problem is in which marco does not delegate
the monitor refresh rates well, while metacity does. What do you think?

Unfortunately for me, the lower and upper resolution are very
uncomfortable, returning to the previous situation with metacity, until
a new marco's version to solve it.

If you need any more information, I'll send it to you.

Regards.
