Version: 3.2.2 (using KDE KDE 3.2.2) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: GCC 3.3.3 CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS = "-O3 -march=pentium4 -funroll-loops -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe" OS: Linux I've a panel in the left side of the screen and then I change the resolution of the desktop there is created a sort of ghost-panel next to my left-panel. (I also have a right-panel, don't I don't think it matters) The result of this is that all the desktop icons are shifted inverts and the background is turned a little grey-ish like it would be if a normal panel were translucent. If I after the ghost-panel appeares move my left-panel, the ghost-panel is suddenly visible in the same color as the other panels, but I can't click on it. I'm just glad that the ghost-panel isn't on-top like my other panels, so that maximized windows are on-top of it. The only way I've found to make it go away is to restart KDE, which I don't want too so I just let this bug continue. I'd like to post some debug output, but nothing comes out when this happens. I've compilede kdelibs, kdebase and others with --enable-debug and I've enabled "1210 kicker", "1204 kdesktop", "1207 kdedesktop (mimicli)" and "1214 kdedesktop (icons)" and told kdebugdialog to output to files, but no output is generated when I change resolution. Is there other debug options i should select? If screendumps are wanted I'd be glad to provide them, but I don't have anythere to post them right now. PS.: I'm using "krandrtray" to change resolution.
Created attachment 6034 [details] Ghost-panel between left-side-panel and desktop icons This images shows the ghost-panel between my left-side-panel and my desktop icons. The Ghost-panel is roftly the same size the left-panel.
I just thought, I'd better report details on my system: Hardware: CPU: P4 2.8GHz Motherboard: Asus P4P800S Videocard: Asus V9280 Video Suite (Geforce 4 TI4280) Software: Linux 2.6.6 NVIDIA Driver v. 5336 Xorg 6.7.0 (It happend with XFree 4.3 as well) A little on my configuration, I'm using twinview in clone. My metamodes are: Option "MetaModes" "1152x864,1024x768; 1024x768, 1024x768;800x600, 800x600" I hope this will help, in tracing this bug down.
Looks to me like kdesktop is not resizing correctly. I definitely see background background redraw problems here.
I'd just like to add that this bug exists in both KDE 3.2.3 and KDE 3.3.0alpha1.
I've just tried OneBase's LiveCD with KDE3.3beta2 on my old machine and the bug is exactly the same. The old machines hardware: AMD Athlon XP 2000+ on a Soltek SL-75KAV with 636MB SDRAM. Geforce2 MX 32MB I can't help to notice that both machines uses an Geforce-videocard, can anyone confirm (or unconfirm) this bug?
Havn't seen this in a long time, closing.
Bug closed. Kdesktop is no more mantained.
