Public bug reported: In trying to get Compiz working under Xmir in Unity 8 desktop mode, I have found that when a Mir window opens and then resizes to whatever Unity 8 tells it to, the resize event does not get propagated down until another resize event occurs.
For example, I start up an X app. The Xmir window opens and is resized, but internally, Xmir still reports the full screen size so when Compiz starts, it thinks the surface size is the size of the physical display. I'll include a patch that fixes this and we can discuss if it's a good fix. ** Affects: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: xmir -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1491071 Title: Xmir doesn't update the screen size until something is actually rendered Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In trying to get Compiz working under Xmir in Unity 8 desktop mode, I have found that when a Mir window opens and then resizes to whatever Unity 8 tells it to, the resize event does not get propagated down until another resize event occurs.
