Xinerama complaints again? (was bbkeys and multi-head displays)

Matter of fact, it does state just the opposite, that the two (or more) screens are treated as one entity. Thus a maximization on Xinerama screen maximizes just like it does on a non-Xinerama screen. Please check the specs before claiming that some product isn't aware of some option. Granted many people seem to think that maximization shouldn't cover all screens, and they are entitled to their opinion. Jamin W. Collins
QT styles
This is not directly related to BB, but bbconf is a QT app so i guess it's sort of appropriate: Can anyone tell me how to add more QT styles? bbconf comes with styles that I do not really like. I saw a QT style on the Qtella web site that I really like, but I have no idea how and where to get it. Any help? Timofei Piatenko [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The only possible use I can see for Xinerama that would make it useful over having two separate entities for the screens would be the ability to move windows between them, and frankly, I can't see that as terribly useful. The discussion is instead about bbkeys and the fact that it apparently can't deal with more than one screen being present without throwing a hissy fit and sulking in a corner. -- Marc Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Xinerama complaints again? (was bbkeys and multi-head displays)
Umm. That's nice. hissy fit. Hmm. Is that a technical term? Patches will be whole-heartedly accepted. Name-callers will be summarily sent to the principal's office =:) Now then. I do have this on my list of TODO's, right after spending some quality time with my family and inventing that new and improved mousetrap. I believe that the problem is that bbkeys is only XGrabKey'ing against the first screen that blackbox manages. I believe the solution may be as follows change: XGrabKey(getXDisplay(), grabSet.KeyMap[i].keycode, grabSet.KeyMap[i].modMask | LockMask, getScreenInfo(0)->getRootWindow(), True, GrabModeAsync, GrabModeAsync); to: XGrabKey(getXDisplay(), grabSet.KeyMap[i].keycode, grabSet.KeyMap[i].modMask | LockMask, getCurrentScreenInfo()->getRootWindow(), True, GrabModeAsync, GrabModeAsync); I have made these changes in the CVS version of bbkeys. Please pull down this code and give it a whirl. If it doesn't work, then my next guess is that I'll need to change bbkeys to XGrabKey against each screen that blackbox is managing on the display. cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/bbkeys login (hit enter for the password) cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/bbkeys co bbkeys That will get you what you need Please let me know. And seriously, if you know how it should be done differently, by all means, send me a patch. I'm pretty much sitting out here making semi-educated guesses Thanks vanRijn On 2001.10.23 22:25 Marc Wilson wrote: > On Tue, Oct 23, 2001 at 08:49:34AM -0500, Jamin W.

I also had problems with the -i option. I patched it to get it working for
me, as well as addded some new options to the application for setting
windows' positions and sizes. See attached. :)
