Hello -
I have a suggestion for Xinerama, but I don't know enough about
automake to provide a patch: we could use "configure" options
telling fvwm2 where to look for the library and include files.
Also related to Xinerama, here are better versions of some patches
I posted before (now everything properly goes through the FScreen
layer to calculate Xinerama screen coordinates.) We're upgrading
from isolated multi-head displays to Xinerama, and with the following
patches, we were able to keep the same geometry resources we use on
separate DISPLAY's (:0.0, :0.1, :0.2, :0.N) and translate them to
'*wmscreen: N' resources. FVWM2 looks very stable so far on our
Linux/Solaris/HP-UX mix. Thanks a lot to all who worked on this.
XINERAMA PATCH 1: Adds a new function to FScreen to convert global coords.
XINERAMA PATCH 2: Adds a check for a *wmscreen resource.
XINERAMA PATCH 3: Uses function in PATCH 1 to make USPosition windows
obey StartsOnScreen Style/*wmscreen resource.
XINERAMA PATCH 4: Uses PATCH 1 to cause window positions displayed while
moving a window to be screen-relative whenever possible.
I might not be good to put any of this in the 2.4.3 release, but
I hope it is useful to someone. #4 probably needs a config file
option associated with it to turn it on/off. Adding "@N" to the
string it displays would make it nicer too.
Please let me know if there's anything else needed to make these
patches generally useful.
Be seeing you,
- Sidik
