Confirmed. Same problem here (KDE-CVS 2003-10-27, KDE-beta1). Created attachment 3011 [details]
Black Fullscreen Bug
Fixes the symptoms, not the cause.
IMO the problem is, that the X Window used for displaying the pixmap somehow
disappears or destroys. Raising, mapping, etc didn't work, so this patch simply
recreates it. :(
Is there a reason for using plain X windows ?
The reason is probably speed? This bug is also present in KDE 3.2 Beta 1. I also confirm this. Very annoying bug. The author apparently knows about that problem. The cvs logs to kuickshow/src/imagewindow.cpp say: === revision 1.55 date: 2003/10/15 11:55:49; author: pfeiffer; state: Exp; lines: +5 -40 working fullscreen mode with the new kwin (only works properly with qt-copy + patches -- I really hope that those go into Qt proper, soon). CCMAIL: Lubos Lunak <l.lunak@suse.cz> === I just applied that patch and, indeed, kuickshow works again. :-) I still have this black screen on Full Screen mode, with kde from cvs HEAD. Confirmed by another person. Same here, HEAD 20031121, so after the patch was applied. Subject: Re: in fullscreen mode picture is just black

You misunderstand. This is a patch to Qt and resides in the
"qt-copy/patches" directory (0026-netwm-fullscreen.patch?).
It isn't applied in cvs -- you have to apply it yourself using
"apply_patches".
The bug seems to be still present un KDE 3.2 beta 2... If the correction is to patch Qt, when will Qt contain this correction ? Will official Qt version contain a correction before the KDE 3.2 official release ? Subject: Re: in fullscreen mode picture is just black It's in the current qt-copy -- that is, at least Qt 3.3 snapshot 20031220.

No, unfortunately I don't know, I can hardly follow the mailinglists currently and haven't been on IRC for quite a while, so I don't know of any decision about that. Cheers Carsten no, KDE 3.2 doesn't require QT 3.3, worst yet, I compiled QT and re-compiled kdegraphics and this very problem persists, please fix. I confirm this bug for KDE 3.2 (BRANCH >=20040204), installed from current Debian experimental binary packages (Kuickshow 0.8.6). I think the problem is in Kuickshow, not Qt since, the screen blacks out when going to fulscreen mode and the window remains black even after returning to the windowed mode. Since my heavy use of Kuickshow I consider this bug critical and I wonder the the CLOSED status of the bug means here! I agree with Krystof Zacek I consider this bug critical as well and it still occurs on Mandrake 10 (KuickShow version 0.8.6). Still the very best image/slideshow viewer around. Thank you. I can only emphasize on this: It is DAMMNED annoying. Kuickshow is the best image viewer on Linux, and on each of my machines (DEBIAN) it stopped working since KDE 3.2. Why is this closed?? FYI, this has been fixed on Gentoo for several months now. Is it distribution dependant? On Fri, Jun 11, 2004 at 12:16:25PM -0000, Sean E. Russell wrote:

This behavior depends on the Qt version used. There appears to be no
developer interested in fixing it for the old Qt version, and Kuickshow
works fine with the new.
I believe this has been explained several times before during the lifetime
of this bug, so it's unlikely I'll keep myself cc:ed if people keep asking
the same. ;-)

*** Bug 77498 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 78475 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Same problem here, but I'm runing QT 3.3.3, KDE 3.3.0 on Gentoo. Strange. I recommend re-opening this bug, even if the underlying cause is different. It can reliably be reproduced by running xorg with X composition (option "Composite") enabled, and then using Kuickshow in fullscreen mode. Consequently, the quick fix is to disable Composite rendering in X. |
