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.

Description Tomas Jamrisko 2012-03-06 13:40:59 UTC 
Created attachment 567954 [details]
Black area in top right corner, seam at the right edge.

Description of problem:
--not sure against which component to file this, so sorry if (and I most likely did) get it wrong.

Reducing resolution on both displays to something, that isn't a native aspect ratio, and then returning it to native resolution can result in wallpaper corruption

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-desktop-2.28.2-8.el6

How reproducible:
Fairly often (might require a few tries) 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. lower resolution on both screens
2. change the resolution a few more times
3. Return resolution to native
  
Actual results:
The wallpaper has black patches and visible seams near right edge. 

Expected results:
The wallpaper is as it was before
