Description of problem: After the update from 16th of October, the LXDE twinview resulted in loss of virtual desktop spanning two twinview screens. Backgrounds are no longer spanned across the screens and desktop icons appear on both displays. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
The wallpaper and the icons are handled by pcmanfm. pcmanfm never really did multiple screens, spanning the desktop over two displays was just the default behavior of the X-server. In pcmanfm 1.0.1 this has been changed. It now offers some multi-display support, but only does cloning. What you are seeing is not a bug but a feature, see http://blog.lxde.org/?p=947. I know this answer is not really helpful for you. Therefor I suggest you install arandr and use it to configure your desired setup. arandr just generates a xrandr command line you could then add to the LXDE autostart via lxsession-edit.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. 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 prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 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 to Fedora 17's end of life. 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 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.
