[Bug 521492] Re: Dual Monitor wallpaper is not scaling across both monitors, same background is repeated on both monitors instead

 

I added this to the gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu, which
corresponds better to the upstream bug than "meta-gnome2".

This bug still appears in Ubuntu 11.10 with gnome-control-center
1:3.2.0-0ubuntu6.

** Also affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

  background is repeated on both monitors instead

  Confirmed

Status in “meta-gnome2” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On all other Ubuntu/Gnome versions you can use a wallpaper sized for
  dual-monitor and it will span across both monitors, currently the same
  wallpaper is being repeated twice, once on each monitor.

  Appears to be https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=603551
  regarding scaling wallpaper across dual monitors

  If Nautilus' wallpaper manager is replaced by Compiz's, the wallpaper
  scales correctly.
