Bug ID: 433648
Summary: Multi-monitor login prompt should mirror screen
instead of extending it
Product: ksplash
Version: 5.21.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When having the login screen that is prompting for a password, there are 2
independent login screens rendered on each connected monitor (if usually the
mode is set to extend the monitor instead of mirroring the main screen at
least).
For a login screen I think this is a rather weird behavior as this forces be to
figure out which of the password prompts is currently having focus.
Thus I would propose to mirror the main screen's content to all secondary
screens for the login prompt and only start extending the screen after that.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure multiple monitors to extend the screen
2. Open login prompt (aka: logout)
