[Bug 517989] [NEW] compiz enhanced zoom effect not working when projecting through HDMI/DVI/S3

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

hey all,

using compiz in Ubuntu Karmic 9.10, i often plug my laptop (Dell
Inspiron 1525) to a HD TV or larger screen. when doing so, after
pressing the Fn+F8 combo (as coded in the laptop) the screen reduces the
resolution to 1024x768 (or 800x600) in order to project/synchronise with
the new screen.

Everything works, including many of the compiz effects, discluding the
Enhanced Zoom effect.

i tested this in more than one TV/screen -- with HDMI, DVI and S3 -- and
the problem is always the same..

thanks in advance
