So this got me curious, and I tried it out. In the terminal that's
running inside of the virtualbox instance where I'm doing emails, it
comes back with:
:0
Have you tried to emulate multiple monitors in virtualbox?
But in a terminal which is running on the host Debian system, it comes back
with:
:0.0
I wonder why the difference?
My guess is that it may depend on graphics adapter and its driver. I
have heard that a display may have several screens (it is not the same
as multiple monitors that show different regions of the same display and
screen). I have never tried such configuration. I am unsure which
approach is used in nvidia's xinerama.
