Package: gdm3
Version: 2.30.5-6
Severity: normal
I have 2 widescreen displays (1920x1200). After switch to other user there is a
default size (1024x768) and the greeting screen is only on one display. I can
login and set the right size, but this size is not installed on both displays.
Sometimes one display leaves blank, sometimes both. After restart all works
fine.
