    Can you compile fvwm w/Xinerama under XFree86 and run it with -display
to Solaris' X?  Or simply do xdpyinfo on Solaris box and look if XINERAMA is
present in the list of extensions.

    Sun had a habit of shipping various libraries and utilities in separate
optional packages, so...  Anyway,

    find / | egrep -i 'xinerama|panoramix'

will be a good source of information ("Panoramix" is Xinerama's old name).

    No, AFAIK, what is currently used is the only way (well, how can we
support Xinerama w/o libXinerama)?

    BTW, official X.org's R6.5.1 (or whatever is current) is a good place to
look at, I'll do it.
