I attach my /etc/XF86Config-4 for those who'll search on google...
Now I have 1 display split between my 2 screens (by running "startx --
-layout dual"). I've tried do to a "startx", and then a "startx --
-layout secondary :1" in another Virtual Terminal. This results in launching a second X server on
the second screen. The second display hangs, and then when I return to the first display (by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F7), my enlightenment (the one I launched first) tells me warnings like "there is already a display manager started!". Is it possible somehow to start 2 different X servers (not one shared by the 2 screens)??
PS: I don't mind having an enlightenment, and a Window Maker running... (just in case the problem comes from enlightenment)
CU, and thanks again!
