Hello, 

I am trying to use awesome as my main window manager. It works on the same 
hardware out of the box on Ubuntu 12.04. I recently installed a complete new 
system on another partition on the same equipment with debian wheezy. 

Now If I start in debian wheezy my X session it opens awesome mirrored on both 
monitors. 

When I do an xrandr configuration to say monitor x is on the left of monitor y 
it works, but awesome is only on one screen, the other does not have the top 
bar and no background, it's basically black. 

I can switch the focus to the other screen with the key combination, and the 
cursor moves to the second screen (I can also move the cursor with the mouse to 
the second screen) but I can't create windows (e.g. terminal with mod4+enter). 
Also rightclicking with the mouse does not reveil the awesome menu. 


I am not sure if it's X-related, awesome-related or myself-related, I hope 
someone had similiar issues in the past and can tell me how to fix this, 


best regards 
Raimund Sacherer
