I think i figured out what the problem is: i disabled the secondary screen, and now it works. well, sort of. it works until i enable the secondary screen from nvidia-settings. i don’t use xinerama, just the “separate x screen” options. so basically i have 2 screens in my xorg.conf. is there any way i can have dual screen working in kde4?

this is what happens when i zoom in:

if i change the resolution to 1024×768, everything looks normal, but my native resolution is 1280×1024, so anything below that look awful.
i tried changing the display setup to only one display, the same result.

@ lemn

looks like a “zoom” of your desktop. must be other problem but try it out: click on the “jing and young”-like symbol in the upper-right corner and zoom in.

I tried KDE 4 since the alpha, i just installed this version, and i keep having the same problem: the desktop looks very bad, somehow the resolution is all screwed up. take a look at the screenshot:

i have no idea what is wrong, kde 3 and gnome work perfectly. i have a nvidia 8600 gt with nvidia binary driver, set up for dual screen, running ubuntu hardy.
