Hmm, well apparently not in version 3.4.3!
I do use it everyday. :)
How are your monitors configured? Separate X screens, Xinerama, TwinView, etc?
I also can't run the Psi IM client on screen #1 because although I
can move and resize the window, I can't click on anything, it's like
it has frozen.
Sounds like a X problem rather than a window manager one.
After some more experimenting I discovered this is because upon connecting to
the network, Psi displays a popup message. On screen #0 this popup message
appears fine and can be dismissed, but on screen #1 the popup is invisible, so
the main Psi window cannot be used until the popup is dismissed, making it
appear as if it has locked up. I don't know where the popup goes, it's not on
screen #0 or #1.
I'm not giving up yet, hoping that I can come up with workarounds
for these issues, but I'm afraid the 'awesomeness' is quickly fading
;-)
Do you really use Xinerama or some proprietary driver with proprietary
bugged options ? :-/
I use the proprietary nVidia driver for OpenGL support, so not really much
choice there. I was running with two monitors as separate X screens, but then
I can't move windows between monitors so I enabled Xorg Xinerama, and this
seems to be when most of the issues arose (it seems Awesome can no longer tell
the difference between screen #0 and #1.)
Are you not supposed to use Xinerama? The only other option is nVidia's
TwinView which does a sort of internal Xinerama and makes two screens appear
as a single X11 display, but I can't use that as one of my screens is rotated
into portrait mode and TwinView requires all monitors to be in the same
orientation.
So what is the preferred configuration for multi-monitor Awesome?
Thanks,
Adam.
