Hi!
As was mentioned some time ago, Xinerama API implementation in
XFree86 isn't an official X.org standard. And X environments other than
XFree86 use different (and incomplete, and undisclosed) "Panoramix" API.
A draft of upcoming standard API is available at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/xinerama/xinerama/xc/doc/XineramaApi.txt?rev=1.2&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
Differences from XFree86's implementation are very subtle and can be
easily handled within FScreen.c with a little assistance from configure
script. Additionally, Mark Vojkovich states at
http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/xpert/2001-September/011340.html
that "XFree86 will support both when the X.Org protocol is finalized".
BTW, I'm going to contact him regarding our findings (like a desire to
have a "Pointer changed physical screen" event). Are there any other
similar things which will require assistance from X server and API?
