Hmmm....pretty quiet. Not a bug? Not important? Nobody cares? knock knock..anybody out there? [listens....silence] note you might be able to force the resolution with xrandr or something... qxl can be resized to arbitrary resolutions, but I think desktop tools only show the list that qxl explicitly advertises. Though strangely in qemu qxl.c and the xf86 driver code I see QXL_MODE_EX(1366, 768), not sure if something else is needed to get that mode advertised Maybe it's the common_modes[] list in drivers/gpu/drm/qxl/qxl_display.c , that seems pretty sparse and is missing the mode mentioned above Yup, probably needs to be updated there. I've had in the back of my mind to remove this list from the kernel driver and use the one from QEMU which iirc the kernel driver is able to access, but never got around to doing it. Thanks for taking a look (Even though it's a minor thing in the grand scheme of things) Confirmed that xrandr does not list that resolution as being available.

I can script it up on startup for now. thanks for the suggestion. This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '23'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
