That's likely. The code that used to support xinerama was removed and replaced by the xrandr code. At that time I had no objection regarding this, as xrandr seemed supported by most drivers. > Any suggestions for getting 1.4.9 working on a non-xinerama non-xrandr > multiple screen configuration would be welcome. First I think we could try to understand why xrandr isn't working on your nouveau setup: https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Randr12/ Does ratpoison print any message on stderr? (Such as "Xrandr version 1.2 is not supported".) -- jca | PGP : 0x1524E7EE / 5135 92C1 AD36 5293 2BDF DDCC 0DFA 74AE 1524 E7EE
