Created attachment 862534 [details]
screenshot of the desktop

Description of problem:

I'm not totally sure if this is a gnome-shell issue, or exists at the mutter level (or lower, even), but it happened right around when gnome-shell was upgraded to 3.11.5 on my rawhide Macbook Pro with retina box.

For the record, gnome-shell had been working great on this HiDPI box.  But now it only shows the upper left quadrant of the desktop, it is exactly 1/4 of the area it should be displaying.

I've attached a screenshot, not sure what other info is helpful, but I'm happy to try things and report back.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):  3.11.5


How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Boot
2.  Notice GDM is only showing the upper left quadrant of the login screen.

Actual results:

only upper left quadrant of the desktop is visible

Expected results:

entire desktop is visible

Comment 1 Bobby Powers 2014-02-28 17:08:14 UTC
This is fixed with gnome-shell 3.11.90 - although a slightly related issue is that when gnome-shell hits a crash and restarts, the window borders reset to 1x size, not the 2x.  Separate issue tho, I will try to debug a little and submit a new issue later.

Comment 2 Jaroslav Reznik 2015-03-03 15:28:35 UTC
