Hey, you were doing this in secret? :-) Didn't I say that I would keep the patch up to date? Actually, I did this and checked it in now. I made several enhacements regarding efficiency (don't poll the mouse with only one screen), usability (enable/disable on the fly, renamed commands to XineramaEnable/XineramaDisable), configure (HAVE_XINERAMA is put into config.h), general code structure (changed library user interface a bit), xinerama emulation (for people with one monitor). As you may have noticed I already started another thread to discuss the details of the Xinerama implementation. Before we continue patching we should think about the right way > As I understood from conversation in the list, there were plans to do > 2.4.1 as a bugfix-only release, so I didn't hurry (mea culpa...). Gee, the plans were overridden by me committing the Xinerama patch ;-) I plan to add Xinerama support along with the first bugfixing release. I don't think it will take this much time. It will suffice to support a minimal set of Xinerama features at first and circumvent the problems I described in my other mail. The fancy gimmicks can wait for a future release. > Now I'm finishing adding basic RandR support, but there are two choices: > 1) comment out RandR-handling and post diff immediately; If you already have both patches in your code it is best to check out a fresh fvwm from cvs and re-add your Xinerama changes there. I think the last time you sent the Xinerama patch there was another non-xinerama patch in the diff (Bindings.c, but I'm not sure). > 2) spend those few > days and post somewhere near wednesday. What will be preferred? What is RandR? Anyway, as soon as 2.4.1 with Xinerama is released, the stable versions get their own branch and development on the main branch will (hopefully) start with full force. Until then it would help most if we all concentrate on the Xinerama patch (and bug fixes) before adding new features.
