Subject: Fullscreen Bug
To: Manusheel Gupta <a href="mailto:manu@laptop.org" target="_blank"><manu@laptop.org></a>
Sir,
Following is the observation regarding the bug:
<a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sugar-0.88/+bug/614388" target="_blank">https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sugar-0.88/+bug/614388</a>
The bug was filed with testing on virtual box only which I forgot to
mention.
I tried to reproduce the bug on my laptop which is running on Ubuntu:
- Set the resolution to 640x480.
- Start the emulator.
Result: the emulator started with fullscreen.
-Repeated the same steps on virtual box.
Result: the emulator did not start with fullscreen.
Next test on laptop:
- Set the resolution to 800x600.
- Start the emulator.
Result: the emulator started in windowed mode. Noticed some cropping at the
bottom.
I think the resolution 800x 600 needs to be checked out a bit.
If it is possible I will like to experiment on it a bit more before closing
the bug tomorrow.
Dipankar
