Not quite sure what i'm doing wrong here. I want 2 separate instances

dragging windows from screen to screen, but I am concerned with each x
server being able to accept my mouse and keyboard commands.

It seems no matter what I do, my Secondary screen on the right of me
can interact fully with my mouse and keyboard, but the primary screen
in front of me can only interact with the mouse. It will not accept
any keyboard commands. And while the mouse can be dragged over to that
screen, it will not click on 'nil'. Mod+P doesn't work on the primary
screen to bring up dmenu, I can't open a terminal there, nothing.

wmii supports Xinerama. Is there some reason you can't use it instead? There used to be some measures in place to ensure that two instances would cooperate, but since that setup doesn't get much use any more, they may have faded away a bit.
