Hi, I am going to set up a dual monitor system in a couple of days, and awesome seems to be the software to make maximum benefit from dual monitors. IIUC tags can be assigned independently to each screen from the same collection of tags.
But what software should run under awesome to minimise the setup hassle? In my experience Ubuntu/gnome detect and enable dual monitors with little pain. OTOH, I have no need for all the heavy gnome features. The awesome wiki keeps talking about editing the X config, which I can do if I have to, but I'd prefer to save the time. What systems (linux distros) will make awesome work on dual monitors straight from the box? The graphics card will be a nvidia one: Gainward GeForce GTX 560Ti, if that matters. Any hints and ideas are welcome. I was planning to use Ubuntu as my starting point, but that plan can be revised. TIA -- :-- Hans Georg -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [email protected].
