[Bug 1072889] [NEW] fullscreen games at lower than native resolution only show upper left corner

 

Public bug reported:

bug can be worked around by using gnome-fallback session or using
unredirect fullscreen windows.

bug shows with both native and wine applications.

only happens when using compiz as window manager, others work as
expected.

i've tested with the propriatary nvidia driver and the nouveau driver.
bug also happens on my laptop with both the intel driver and the radeon
one.

can also be reproduced with the livecd.
