User who did this - jonas rudlang (jonasr) Attached to Project - awesome Summary - vmware multiple monitors Task Type - Bug Report Category - Core Status - Unconfirmed Assigned To - Operating System - Linux Severity - Medium Priority - Normal Reported Version - git/master Due in Version - Undecided Due Date - Undecided Details - Vmware is unable to use multiple monitors in awesome because of "lack of support" This is the error message I get from vmware: This virtual machine cannot use multiple monitors for the following reasons: * The current host window manager does not support multiple monitors. Than I googled and found this explanation: https://communities.vmware.com/thread/198341 "The real problem is the window manager, and here's why.... Up until just this last year, there was not any official way to tell a window manager "hey, I want this window to be fullscreen and I also want it to span multiple monitors." So we have some "interesting" hacks in our code that try to force window managers to do this, even though they really don't want to. The results can vary from complete hell (Compiz) to mildly irritating (Openbox, apparently =;)). Last year, some of my colleagues added the NETWM_FULLSCREEN_MONITORS Window Manager hint to the EWMH spec (http://snurl.com/dxbi6) so that we now have a clean way of doing this."
