RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Screenshot of the non-primary display resize

Description of problem:
If the primary display is smaller than the secondary display and you resize the secondary display, the wallpaper on the secondary display is resized to the display size of the primary display. However, when I then resize the primary display, the secondary display resizes the wallpaper to the normal resolution of the display.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhev-guest-tools-iso-3.3-5.noarch.rpm
RHEL6.5-20130912.n.2
rhev-hypervisor6-6.5-20130910.2.el6ev.noarch.rpm
Windows XP VM

How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual results:
Resize the secondary display to something larger than the primary resolution and the display wallpaper is the size of the primary display.

Expected results:
Resize the secondary display to something larger than the primary resolution and the display wallpaper should match the display.

Isn't this a duplicate of rhbz#958153 ?
Comment 3 David Jaša 2013-09-17 14:43:43 UTC 
It is, and it is a standard windows behaviour as well that can be observed on machines that have never seen qxl device.
Comment 6 Bill Sanford 2013-09-17 15:55:01 UTC 
This is not a duplicate.
Comment 7 Marc-Andre Lureau 2013-09-17 15:57:31 UTC 
fwiw I opt for duplicate too.
Comment 13 Bill Sanford 2013-09-23 15:43:11 UTC 
This is the same with a Windows 7x86 VM.
Comment 15 Alon Levy 2014-05-25 21:53:33 UTC 
Bill - I checked win7 on a physical machine (not qxl) and saw the same behavior, i.e. secondary wallpaper doesn't take all the monitor if resolution is larger then primary. Any reason not to close this?
Comment 16 Bill Sanford 2014-06-09 13:06:51 UTC 
I think we can close this as a Windows issue.
