Both only detect one monitor. But it depends on which of my monitors I launch the application from. In other words, they only detect the monitor on which the application is running.
So I guess I have something fundamentally wrong in my xorg.conf, or this is just not possible with separate video cards. Something even more interesting: I set up fluxbox to show workspaces 1-4 on my primary monitor, and workspaces 5-6 on my secondary monitor. Fluxbox lets me "send" a window to a different workspace, but I can't send from workspace 1 to workspace 5 or 6. I can only send to a different workspace on the same monitor. -Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
