I see. The Wikipedia article on Xinerama also alludes to this, quoting someone "We were frustrated by ... being unable to move applications from one [monitor] to another" -- that is, each monitor was a separate screen. (Of course, that article manages to use the terms "display", "screen", and "monitor" in very ambiguous ways.) I've never seen a Xinerama-less multihead setup, hence the confusion. Thanks Robert and Oscar. -- Johannes _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
