Actually, you are *not* running Xinerama. The whole point of Xinerama is to treat all video screens as a single big screen. Applications do not even notice different screens. Multiple fvwms can not run on a single Xinerama root window, so you must have a conventional multi-head X setup. You have to check your X setup and change it so that is uses Xinerama. > In other words, I would like to allow the situation in which my first > monitor is on virtual desktop x, while the my second monitor is on virtual > desktop y.

If so how? Multiple copies of fvwmpager? Ciao Dominik ^_^ ^_^ -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
