Comment 10 for bug 1336994

I don't know if it is the same as my problem. But I had a problem with all full screen applications.
My Ubuntu is 14.04 32 bits using NVIDIA UNIX x86 Kernel Module 340.65, manually installed.

When my desktops loads it load in the full screen resolution (Full HD, 1920x1080). Then I want to lower my resolution to make a game run in a lower resolution when I switch it to full screen, if not it always run in 1920x1080, and that is what I don't want.
For example i switch my resolution to 1280x800. The resolution is switched OK, using nvidia-settings or xrandr (in command line). The same effect, it is not nvidia-settings related.

When I switch to lower resolution, the desktop and the panning desktop (virtual desktop) appears to be the same. That is exactly what I expect. But when I run any program, it does not matter if it is the game or not, in full screen, the full screen is always in 1920x1080, I mean, the program (a youtube video in chrome, a videogame, a video using mplayer, using xine...), whatever application in full screen, always detect the resolution being 1920x1080. Then, they don't switch the device resolution by that, instead they run outside of the screen like if the virtual desktop were still in 1920x1080.

Where can I specify the applications that the panned resolution and the real resolution are the same?

May this be a bug in the NVIDIA driver? In XOrg?

If it is the same problem I can help sending logs and so. Just explain me what you need and how to get that.
