TwinView and Xinerama on Linux
Hi,
I use Gentoo Linux with the newest nvidia-{kernel,glx}. As DE/WM I use KDE/KWin 3.4.2. Now that I got a second monitor I use TwinView to stretch my screen over both monitors. This works ok, but some things need optimization: - When I maximize an application window, it gets maximized over both screens. That's not what I want. I would like the application be maximized only on _one_ monitor. Is that possible? If yes, how? - All dialogs which normally would be displayed centered on my screen now are displayed between the two monitors. (Ok, I know that's the middle of the screen.) Is it possible to get the dialogs centered on the monitor which holds the rest of the application? And as a last question: Is the key to the answers of my questions Xinerama? Now I have all apps compiled without Xinerama support. Do I have to recompile with Xinerama support? Much thanks in advance, Tassilo |
