I am still having the issue. I tried searching on Google but relevant results. Sometimes, even if I open a window in screen2, if I maximize it using Mod4+m, it gets back to the screen1. (This doesn't happen everytime) I also use Alt+F2 to run dmenu_run. Sometimes, my mouse in on screen2 & still when I do Alt+F2, the dmenu_run opens at screen1. What can be the issue?

My awesome config can be found at: https://github.com/shadyabhi/dot-files/tree/master/.config/awesome

This is really driving me crazy.

So, I have no prior experience with working with multiple screens.
It's my first day at job & I got a monitor.

I used

|xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1680x1050 --right-of LVDS1
|

Now, if I move my mouse to the edges, my mouse switches to the other
screen. But, when I execute commands to maximize a client, switching
clients using M-j,k, shortcut for dmenu_run, all shortcuts for
executing others, It happens in my laptop screen itself.

What do I need to do?

I may be way off in this, but I think if you do Mod4 + Control + j
(see man awesome), it will change your focus. +j is next screen, +k is
previous screen.

HTH,
