Description Lutz Ifer 2009-04-13 16:00:15 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 3.5.10)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

Running KDE 3.5.10 on a 2.6.26-1-686 Squeeze- Debian, dual monitor on a laptop, graphics card is an radeon xpress 200M 5955 PCIE.

Main monitor (=laptop's monitor) running at 1280x800 @ 60Hz, second monitor running (tft) running at 1280x1024 @ 75Hz.

On the second monitor everything works fine: maximizing a window fills the screen, popu-menus "fold" up, when there's not enough space between cursor and lower screen border.

On main monitor, maximizing a window exceeds the lower screen border for about 200 pixels (which seem to be 1024 - 800), as well as popup-menus.

tried to change the resultion(s) with krandrtray, didn't do anything.

tried to move ~/.kde to ~/.kde_old and reboot, didn't help.

Is this reproducable in a newer version of KDE (e.g. 4.2)?
Comment 2 Lutz Ifer 2009-04-15 16:28:22 UTC
when i tried kde 4 (don't know excact version, the one installed by default by kubuntu 8.10 iirc), i was'nt able to get dual-monitor to work at all, so this is a "no".
Comment 3 Martin Flöser 2009-05-26 10:43:14 UTC
As KDE 4 is available in Debian testing: have you tried again?
Comment 4 Lutz Ifer 2009-06-06 15:52:02 UTC
using KDE 4.2.2 now, same problem as before
Comment 5 Thomas Lübking 2012-03-15 01:28:02 UTC
Sorry for the delay.

Since the screengeometry backend has changed / was replaced: is this still an issue?
In case, what kind of musltiscreen setup is this? - xinerama, xrandr, independent screens, or some fglrx proprietary mechanism?
