Generally, it's impossible. However, GTK2 supports changing display. I'm not sure if any GTK2 application can be moved (or how to do it), or if the application has to do something explicitly. I'm also not sure about QT. -- Måns Rullgård [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/devel
