Hi, Stipples are good, me thinks. If it's the raw X ugliness at any rate. This means X is happy but your windowmanager is only managing :0.0 and ignoring :0.1 I'd set things as they were and explicitly start windowmanagers on both displays in your .xinitrc
That's what I usually do for intel or sparc multihead setups. The trickiest thing I've found is getting windowmanagers that play well. It's been a while since I tried different ones (if it ain't broke...), I found sawfiss/sawmill plays well when told which display to manage. .xinitrc example: --- sawfish --display :0.0& exec sawfish --display :0.1 --- with this example if you want to end the Xsession you'll need to "quit" from :0.1, you can (un)happily quit the windowmanager on :0.0 and X will keep going. HTH, -Jon
