Multiple monitors and repainting
I have an NVidia DualView card (Quadro NVS) with two monitors attached to it. My monitors are laid out as "2"->"1" (#2 on the left). I recently upgraded to the new xorg x11 via setup. The version is xorg-x11 6.7.0.0-6. I start X with startxwin.bat. I'm using Windows 2000. The problem is this: If you move an xterm from one screen to the next (they appear on #2, and I move them to #1), the window stops repainting. If I move half, the half that was on #2 still repaints, while the #1 half does not. I'm wondering if you are aware of this issue, and if you have any solutions or workarounds. For now all my consoles live in monitor #2 :-) Thanks, -David Martinez

David, Add -multiplemonitors to your XWin command line. -- Original Message - Subject: Multiple monitors and repainting Date: Thu, 15 Apr 2004 10:57:57 -0700 From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I have an NVidia DualView card (Quadro NVS) with two monitors attached to it.
