My desktop is 1024x1280. Video mode |is also 1280x1024. Or do I miss your point? I think so. My observation was that I only see the pixel shift when the desktop is larger than the video mode, and then only in 24bpp and 32bpp (on the Matrox Millenium G200 on XFree86 3.3.4). This is different behavior from prior Millenium cards. |> I filed a bug on this for XFree86 3.3.4 today, referring them to the DGA |> test progs I cooked up: |> |> http://www.ipass.net/~dbhopper/aa8vb/fxtv/dgafbtest.c |> http://www.ipass.net/~dbhopper/aa8vb/fxtv/tv-dgatest.c | |When I run tv-dgatest things become a real mess. A sort of staircase |originating in the left upper corner, moving to the right hand bottom |corner. Sort of defies description. :/ Hehehe. :-) Yeah, it's supposed to be frames of video, but guess you aren't tuned to a frequency right now. |In my case "dgafbtest -f 1024" gives me the yellow L shaped lines |in the exact corners of the screen. Omitting the -f 1024 the 2 righthand |L are offset about 1/8 of the screenwidth to the left. | |> If the XFree86 folks work on a most-reported priority basis for fixing |> bugs, I'm sure a few other folks reporting the Millenium shift bug couldn't |> hurt! | |I guess so. Do you have a bug ID that I can refer to? I'd happily |report the problem to Xfree. I've never gotten bug IDs back in the mail from them. But FWIW attached is a copy of this particular bug report I filed to XFree86@XFree86.org (minus the startx and XF86Config attachments).
