Hi,
I've read Santos Ltd case study which seems to have dual screen support.
I've checked the existing thread for running multiple screens, and it's not
exactly clear to me how to achieve that through TurboVNC (with VirtualGL).
I assume you start with a display with larger geometry to accommodate both
of the screens.
Questions:
1. Now server side, how do you tell the Window manager that it's actually
two screens, because the geometry exported by the X server (xwininfo -root
and xrandr) is still a single screen?
2. I tried using fakerandr, and randr now returns two screens with the
correct split, but it seems that OpenBox (the window manager in question)
use the old X server calls (the ones xwininfo uses) to workout the
geometry, and it's not exactly clear to me how to fake these for OpenBox to
perform maximizing windows into the correct split.
3. How does one handle a client with two different sized rectangles?
Landspace and a portrait monitor for example? Take the max of the screens
widths and heights? But how does the client deal with that afterwards?
4. I am using Gnome 3 on Ubuntu 14.04, and when opening a session who's
geometry is over multiple screens, the non-fullscreen viewer is placed on
my primary display with the scrollbars as expected. At the point I enable
full screen it gets moved to the secondary monitor and I still end up
having a scrollbar just because the extra space it now needs is on the
wrong side of the viewer. I assume this is some Gnome issue, but perhaps
you have any ideas about this? I am running the April 3 2015 release which
says to have addressed something similar with TurboVNC helper which seems
to be printing stuff to stdout.
Finally, thank you for the great piece of software with amazing performance.
Regards,
Audrius.
