In that case you would only get a single, big screen stretched across all monitors from awesome. Xinerama is how awesome figures out which monitors you have and where their viewport is on the root window. I bet that the following command will confirm that Xinerama is enabled: $ xdpyinfo -ext XINERAMA | tail -n 10 Uli P.S.: For your original problem, I guess you would be better off asking on an i3 mailing list instead of awesome's. -- "For saving the Earth.. and eating cheesecake!" -- To unsubscribe, send mail to awesome-unsubscr...@naquadah.org.
