[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1598993] Re: xrandr scaling corrupts external monitor output
I recently reproduced the same problem without using scaling, by connecting to a different external monitor. Now the problem exists in every video mode.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1598993] Re: xrandr scaling corrupts external monitor output
For any who are affected by this, here is a work-around. I was able to add a screen resolution that was detected for my internal monitor, but not for the external one, using xrandr --addmode. It gets the width of the screen right, but truncates the bottom. However panning makes the bottom accessible, so this is not a serious limitation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1598993 Title: xrandr scaling corrupts external monitor output To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1598993/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1598993] [NEW] xrandr scaling corrupts external monitor output
Public bug reported: after doing xrandr --output HDMI2 --scale wxh, using any values except 1x1, the screen becomes increasingly distorted when typing in an editor window. The problem first appears as images of the previous cursor position being left behind, but as typing continues, lines below that being edited become increasingly garbled. The distortion can be removed temporarily by dragging the window to a different position. But of course it comes back as soon as editing resumes. The problem appears also in typing in an xterm window, as the image of the cursor gets left behind while typing the space bar. This makes the scale option completely useless for my usual purposes, and forces me to live with a screen resolution that doesn't properly fill the external monitor. The problem did not exist in xrandr 1.3.3 on my old system. ** Affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1598993 Title: xrandr scaling corrupts external monitor output To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1598993/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 883319] Re: xrandr --scale restricts area in which mouse moves
I have the same bug in a recent build from xenial. I tried downgrading xorg to precise, no difference, mouse still hits the wall when output to internal monitor is turned off. If both monitors are turned on, the problem does not occur. But I like to conserve my laptop screen when I am connected to an external monitor. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/883319 Title: xrandr --scale restricts area in which mouse moves To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/883319/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1597984] [NEW] horizontal scrolling with middle trackpoint button broken
Public bug reported: Horizontal scrolling with the middle trackpoint button on Thinkpad X260 does not work as expected. I noticed the problem in nedit, where holding the middle button while dragging the cursor over the text to be copied is a fast way of copying text. But the cursor does not move, so this feature does not work. In chromium, scrolling works with the cursor in place, but this is not the same functionality as with a real mouse, which is what is supposed to be emulated. This all worked perfectly in Ubuntu 10.10 (what I have been using until now). The difference between scrolling with the middle button of a real mouse and the broken emulation is that with a real mouse, xev sees a ButtonPress event (button 2) followed by MotionNotify events, followed by a ButtonRelease event, whereas with the trackpoint it sees a series of ButtonPress and ButtonRelease events (buttons 4,5,6,7) with no MotionNotify events. Completely different behavior from what an application is expecting. Since this worked in a previous release, is there some work-around? ** Affects: xserver-xorg-input-evdev (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1597984 Title: horizontal scrolling with middle trackpoint button broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/1597984/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I have this bug when I use xrandr to resize the output to the VGA monitor, and then turn off the LVD using xrandr --output LVDS1 --off.
