[mythtv-users] Myth not sticking to xorg.conf's 'virtual' setting?

Hi

I have the same issue as described here:

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/77227?search_string=virtual;#77227

except I have setup the 'virtual' as suggested and Myth seems to be
ignoring it.

This might be because my setup runs two desktops at once - one TV at
720x576 and one projector (via VGA at the moment, not DVI) at 1280x720.
Display sections for both have virtuals set because the projector's
setting includes a 1024x768 res.

Whilst X and KDE respect my virtual settings (the desktop fits the
screen and is not scrollable) Myth on the TV is waay too big. I can't
tell if its using 1024x768 - the largest res available across both
desktops, or 1280x720 - the largest virtual across both desktops and
also defined in the first screen in serverlayout.


(I have a script setup which kills myth, changes the DISPLAY env var
then restarts it to get myth to switch screen.)
