Hi, I have no experience with this use case, so this reply is purely theoretical. You will need to do something in the AppVM and something else in Dom0. This is because the functionality that you are trying to use is spread across those two VMs in the Qubes model. In Dom0, you will at least need to tell the Display manager that there will be more than one display. To do this, use the standard XFCE display settings icon, which you can reach through the menu system. At the very least, you need a tick in the checkbox for "configure new displays when connected". Without this, Dom0 wil not acknowledge that there is more than one display so cannot show different things on the respective displays. Once you have enabled the second display in Dom0, go into your AppVM and do what you normally do. I can't advise beyond that, except that if LibreOffice gives you two windows you can maybe drag each one to where you want it... Finally, the other setting that is also called "presentation mode" coerns the power settings, in order to stop the screen banking, or going into screen saver, during the presentation. You may have a checkbox called "presentation mode" in the battery status widget in the system tray -- if not you will have to go into the Power Mannager in settings and select "never" in the relevant places. Not sure if that will help... Good Luck River~~ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
