Chromium Browser Runs Half Screen

[symbios24]

Hello i`m using latest DietPi Version 6.18 in a Raspberry Pi3B

I installed Chromium Browser and after i set i to auto-start standalone

and it only shows in half of my screen on the left side i have a fullhd 22" screen the other half is black

i had this bug in 6.17 version also it looks like is not fixed yet

Thanks

SSH would be preferred.

Or on local machine, use CTRL+ALT+F2

Default Firefox-esr is not compiled with ALSA, requires pulseaudio, no sound for our systems. Very unlikely we'd implement autostart feature as we'd also need to compile + maintain Firefox-esr for all CPU archs and distros.
