hmm, seems to me that you are getting the normal behavior of 2 adiacent monitors... Look at this image: https://i.stack.imgur.com/zblB1.jpg The image show the normal default situation when you attach a secondary monitor/projector to a pc: the secondary monitor (the one on the left in the photo) only show the bg, but you can move the mouse and drag windows between the 2 monitors. Try to move the mouse pointer over the borders (left/right/top/botton) of your primary screen, it should "jump" to the other monitor (if you get the correct direction). I did not understand if what you want is cloned monitors (same image on both monitors) or you want the "adiacent desktops" as in the photo. Also note that if you want to use cloned monitors you probably need the 2 monitors to have exactly the same resolution and the same aspect ratio, otherwise one of the 2 monitors will work badly, or doesn't work at all. regards > > ------------------------------------------------------------ > ------------------ > Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most > engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot > _______________________________________________ > enlightenment-users mailing list > enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
