Hi,
1. I'm talking about your patch, I downloaded from the VNC site.
2. By say Doesn't update I mean that I can get a full screen update, but
none of the action in monitor #1 is been caught by VNC.
3. I have a mouse prob, the mouse is located in screen#1 but the viewer is
showing the mouse like it was on screen#2
4. The only pointer that I can give you is this, when working in the mode
that I describe the upper left is (-1024,0) and not (0,0)
And as for the driver update, be careful, it will disable you OGL and
DirectX H/A. I sent an angry email to the support at Matrox, and they say
*it's not a bug, we know about it when we release the driver. It will be
fixed in the next vision*.
-Shay.

Subject: RE: Bug in the Dual Screen patch
Shay:
DOH, sorry, I haven't been checking the mailing list for just over a week
now. When you say "Dual Screen Patch", do you mean my MultiVNC patch? There
is a problem that Dean Howell-Fellows was having with my patch that I keep
getting sidetracked before I really look into. He also did not have the
monitor in the upper left.
When you say it doesn't update, could you be more specific? Does it not
display at all? Does it just not get new data from the server and therefore
have a static image? Dean's problem involved the mouse being at a continual
offset and not being able to reach both monitors (in this case it was stuck
on the first monitor). Do you have this problem as well? It might be that
the mouse action only occurs when the primary monitor is below a secondary.
I have multiple monitors at home, but that isn't where I am right now (I'm
about a thousand miles "to the right"), so it's difficult for me to track
these problems down correctly. I intend to be back on Saturday.
In reference to the driver update: Hmmm... swiffy... I'll have to check that
out (most of my computers have dual-head Matrox cards). My main computer
also has an older Matrox Millenium that I use to get a real second monitor.
Sincerely,
Jay Freeman (saurik)

Subject: Bug in the Dual Screen patch
Hi,
Ive imp the Dual Screen Patch into our WinVNC agent and I found up that on
certain configures it doesnt work. When your top left offset is not (0, 0),
then only the first monitor is updated when connecting to the agent. In
order to reproduce the bug in Dual Monitor environment (I have Matrox G400
Dual Head) move monitor #2 (In the Display properties) to on the left
instead of to the right of monitor #1.
FYI: all of you out there that have Matrox Dual Head cards, Matrox released
on the 2/26 a new driver that finally behave like normal TWO monitors and
not one big one. Meaning that maximizing now windows will only maximize it
on the monitor that the window is, and dialog boxes will no longer appear
have one monitor #1 and half on monitor #2 (it was SO annoying). But now
WinVNC will record only the first monitor unless you apply the Dual Monitor
patch.
