Issue
Triple monitor setup:
Two identical screens with native resolution 3840x2160
One wide screen with native resolution 3440x1440
I want to scale the two 4K monitors down to 2560x1440.
No option for this in the Display GUI app (the resolution is not provided by EDID), so i'm using xrandr instead :
This command is working perfectly in other windows manager like qtile.
In cinnamon/mutter, the framebuffer is not adjusted to --fb 8560x1440 as requested.
Instead we get :
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 9840 x 2160, maximum 32767 x 32767
This cause problem since the cursor reaching the bottom or right of the Xscreen will cause a desktop scrolling.
Note also that configuring the monitor downscale with nvidia-settings/xorg.conf lead to the same issue (only in cinnamon again).
Steps to reproduce
Cf. above but in essence, use an xrandr command to downscale a monitor resolution while adjust panning/framebuffer dimensions accordingly.
Expected behaviour
The framebufffer dimension / panning should be correctly picked up by the cinnamon.
Eventually the display GUI app could also propose an option to downscale monitor resolution (when not listed by EDID).
