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.

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

Ahem.
Doing that makes everything work, I admit, because then you have the X
server treating everything that goes on as though it were taking place
on a
double-sized *:0.0 screen, instead of a *:0.0 screen and a *:0.1
screen.
Besides, blackbox doesn't know what Xinerama is anyway. I don't need
it
maximizing windows to cover BOTH monitors. ^_^
Are we really back to this again?
The point isn't about Xinerama in any case. 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.
