Description of the issue (screenshots if relevant):
Cannot set the display resolution to 1600x900
Relevant informations (hardware involved, software version, logs or output…):
I have installed additionally spice-vdagent.
Display is spice-server, video is Virtio, 3D acceleration enabled.
If I set the resolution to 1600x900 in Systemsettings -> Display and Monitor, it always stalls at 1024x768. Hardware is a Sony Vaio E series notebook with 17’ screen. It works well with other distros e.g. Mageia and Fedora.
Btw. I am a bit jealous that you have made the transitions I want to see in Mageia: dnf and NetworkManager.
Welcome @Bequimao to OpenMandriva forum and the OM distro. We hope you enjoy your time spent here and with OM Lx.
Post-edit: Unfortunatly I’m not much help for your issue. OM officially supports running OM Lx in VirtualBox only. We do have developers that use Qemu and I suspect we will hear from one when they get some time and see this. Being a small group and all volunteer we do the best we can at helping users.
Thanks for the link. I tested QXL video and didn’t see any difference. The default memory of 16 MB should be sufficient - my own calculation. 1600 x 900 isn’t exactly high resolution. The default memory is not shown, host is Virt-Manager on openSUSE 15.1.
The resolution of the virtual console is now at 1600x900, but the display still stucks as if hardcoded.
Btw.
The cursor gets caught. Message is "Press Ctrl_L and Alt_L to release … That is quite annoying. This shortcut locks the screen under System settings -> Desktop behaviour -> Screen locking. After disabling it is still valid in other applications, e.g. konsole.
It helps a lot to have spice-vdagentd running. But unfortunately the screen resolution problem is not yet solved.
spice-vdagent-0.12.0-9 is a tad outdated. As Openmandriva 4.0 is a fresh release, I would have expected version 0.19. It might be a security issue, too.
