Comment 4 for bug 331456

Hi Robert,

There are no desktop effects enabled on my machine. I'll try to have a look at it tonight/tomorrow whether switching it on/off makes a difference...

I 'm hoping to upgrade one of these days, although that might not be before next weekend. Once I get there I will post a comment here.

Thx for looking into this.

PS: in the meanwhile I've changed the way VNC-server works on the WindowsXP side so it only sends through the 'virtual' 1600x1200 screen (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\RealVNC\WinVNC4\DisplayDevice is set to \\.\DISPLAY2)
Sadly it remains trial & error to get it to go full-screen properly on the Ubuntu side, so I don't think it's because of the "enormous" resolution I was trying to pass along...
