I dynno why they have done that but as far as I understand it seems to work with dwm - but I read your post that you inted to use the second screen just for having a tiling environment on that... but I like to have a second screen with tiling (maybe to define tags 1-4 go to screen1 and 5-9 to screen 2 or something like that) but I think this needs a little bit of hacking the whole thing ;) > I think the whole X.org crowd is totally misled by dodgy desktop > environment communities... > > Hopefully I will find some sponsor to fund a from-scratch X server and > X lib reimplementation which does multihead without any quirks and > hacks like XRandR... and which provides a decent font interface to > begin with. a suckless X11 - that would be a dream ;) P.S. I'm waiting eagerly for your new project which will be shown at 25c3 - looking forward to meet you there!
