[Bug 1415133] [NEW] dash not fullscreen in virtaul machine with vmvga backend for kvm machines

 

Public bug reported:

Install ubuntu 15.04 in a virtaul machine with kvm using virt manager
and vmvga graphics backend. Then type display in the dash and give the
virtual machine a 1440 x 900 resolution and apply it. Then press the
super key to open the dash and notice that it only covers part of the
screen when I could get more search results in the dash if it was
fullscreen like in 14.04.

I expected a full screen dash.  Instead the dash only covered part of the screen.
