Bug#439663: Quick'n'dirty fix for totem

[Matthias Bläsing]

Hey,

I don't think, that this fix will make it into totem, but this tiny
little patch (that disables all resizing functions) works like a charm:

--- /home/mblaesing/bacon-resize.c 2007-08-31 17:15:56.000000000 +0200
+++ src/backend/bacon-resize.c 2007-08-31 17:17:22.000000000 +0200
@@ -46,6 +46,8 @@
#ifdef HAVE_XVIDMODE
int event_basep, error_basep;

+ return FALSE;
+
/* FIXME multihead */
XLockDisplay (GDK_DISPLAY());

Basicly this tells the system: Don't even test for xvidmode extension or
xrandr - asume they are not there.

This works for me and I'm happy again with totem.

Greetings

Matthias

Hi,

Great, have you had a chance to report it upstream yet? If not, I can
forward the bug for you.
