[SOLVED] After last Pacman update, screen size is reduced

Hello,

after last Pacman update the size of the screen is reduced for some reason. Perhaps there is a command to get it full screen again, I am using Awesome.

Best

Re: [SOLVED] After last Pacman update, screen size is reduced

This completely lacks any usable information. What was updated? What's your graphics setup? Xorg.logs? Journal logs?

Re: [SOLVED] After last Pacman update, screen size is reduced

And what exactly is not "full screen"?  Do you mean you do not have the proper resolution?  Or do you really mean X is not using the full monitor?  The only way I could imagine the latter is if this was a virtual box guest ... if it is, that is definitely something you should have mentioned.

Read this and try again.

I am very sorry to disturb you with non accurate informations, my knowledge is very limited

What was updated?

sudo pacman -Syu

but if you want to know which packages were installed I do not remember

What's your graphics setup?

I suppose it is a standard one, but do not know. Which command can give the information you want?

Xorg.logs? Journal logs?

When the Awasome screen opens it is not anymore large as the screen as it was before the update, but it is smaller, so yes I imagine the reason is that the resolution changed. Also firefox run in the same smaller screen.

Do you mean you do not have the proper resolution?  Or do you really mean X is not using the full monitor?  The only way I could imagine the latter is if this was a virtual box guest ...

yes, the first. No, no virtual environment

Arch is not for you.  You need to be attentive to your Arch system or you will have issues.  If you don't even know the exact configuration of your own system then you'd be better with Ubuntu.  You don't know there either but at least that will keep things up to date for you.

I do not remember, am sorry. It starts alone. But I do only super standard things, without any customization,  so suppose it is that.

well you are probably right, but Arch allowed me to install a very light and fast system on a small laptop and it worked for many years with only a few problems. Nothing is totally perfect in life even Ubuntu has its issues. Also I suppose that changing the resolution broken by an update should be a minor issue.

These sounds contradictory.

Are items on the screen just smaller, or is the interface not using all of your physical monitor?

the second one. The laptop is a 10 inch display, so small, but what you see is two inch smaller because there are two one inch black vertical bars on both sides, which are not used.

Re: [SOLVED] After last Pacman update, screen size is reduced

I made some progress. Installed arandr a graphical utility for xrandr.

arandr automatically displayed LVDS1 option and offered to apply. I did apply and it fixed the resolution and allowed me to save a sh file.

The fix did not survive reboot, but running the sh file fixes it again.

The content of the sh file is:

#!/bin/sh
xrandr --output VIRTUAL1 --off --output LVDS1 --primary --mode 1024x600 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal --output VGA1 --off

So the only thing that is left to do is to render the change permanent as taught here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/xr … esolutions

But it may be dangerous because if the screen does not work anymore, I will not be able to use my laptop anymore. So if anybody knows how to do it safely it would help.
thanks

Re: [SOLVED] After last Pacman update, screen size is reduced

It doesn't look like the resolution isn't detected however there should be no inherent danger in setting this up in a config file (and if the config is broken you can still boot to a console instead of X). However much more likely is that something is setting your resolution automatically to the wrong value after X is started. That xorg log also points to some incorrect session handling. It would be quite important to know how you are currently starting X. Any other fix is only patchworking over the proper solution. You could simply run that xrandr command in your X/awesome autostart files if anything.

Re: [SOLVED] After last Pacman update, screen size is reduced

You don't have to add any resolutions. The correct resolution is detected and automatically picked.
Only afterwards something™ switches to the lower resolution.

The correct™ approach is to isolate this something™ and eliminate it.

Re: [SOLVED] After last Pacman update, screen size is reduced

I'd suspect Awesome doing something funny in one of the many lua files that run at startup.

The simple test for this is to run a session with just a terminal or another WM and see it the resolution is correct.  If it is, you'll know it's awesomeWM that is the culprit.  If it isn't, then look into Xorg configs.

The journal command did not finish after 8 hours, so rebooted it. I found that digiting "c" it starts without X, so tried it and yes the screen has a correct resolution, so you are right the culprit seems Aweseome

Re: [SOLVED] After last Pacman update, screen size is reduced

Then find the problem in your configs.  Perhaps this would give a good start:

grep -rl randr ~/.config/awesome/*

Then check any file that is listed for any use of 'xrandr', 'arandr', or similar commands.

Re: [SOLVED] After last Pacman update, screen size is reduced

Also (since the switch comes fairly early) - did you check your DMs config files?

And to get ahead of your next question: your distro (or some person) installed lightdm for you, it's configuration is in /etc/lightdm/
