           Summary: plasma wallpaper doesn't scale with resolution change,
                    nvidia twinview clone mode
           Product: plasma
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: panel-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: yuriy.kozlov gmail com


Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

Using nightly builds from project Neon,
kdebase version 20080617+svn821478-0neon1

I have a laptop with 1400x1050 resolution, using nvidia's binary driver.  I hooked up an external monitor and used the nvidia-settings utility to enable TwinView, set the external monitor's resolution to 1600x1200, and set it to Clone.

On the 1600x1200 monitor, the wallpaper was still being shown at 1400x1050, and the rest of the background was a checkerboard pattern.  The cashew did show up in the correct right corner.  The panel was at the bottom of the screen, but did not stretch to the right edge of the screen, but could be resized to do so.

By going to zoom out and adding another activity, and returning to the current activity (another bug with that that I will file), the wallpaper took on the proper size.
