I'm not asking for icons to be half on one monitor and half on the other. I'd be perfectly happy to have them all stuck on the left-hand monitor. (Goodness knows, KDE 4 almost didn't implement support for putting icons on my second monitor before I got fed up and switched to LXDE.) I just don't want every single icon to show up twice because I have two monitors or thrice if I decide to plug in a third via my onboard GPU. > This was discussed in [email protected] mailing > list some time ago already, BTW. Huh. That's what I get for unsubscribing on the assumption that EVERYTHING was being cross-posted here, I guess. Do you know if GMane, Thunderbird, or any Thunderbird extension can do de-duplication between two NNTP newsgroups? I get enough of that just from Thunderbird's misunderstanding of how Read/Unread state interacts with GMail's All Mail folder. > >> Given that this makes it completely impossible for PCManFM to display >> different background content on each monitor (It's neither the old "Make >> one big image" behaviour nor KDE's "Chop up your multi-monitor >> background and set the files for individual screens" behaviour), this is >> a pretty big regression. > >> Given that it's duplicating the icons, I'd say it's pretty clearly a bug. > > It's not bug but feature.

I'll excuse it because I'm on your PPA and, therefore, you're the only target user who really matters... but if it makes it into a release, then it's a regression and attempts to re-spin it will only damage your credibility. (Regressions are in the eye of the user. I run LXDE because I want to get work done and I'm on your PPA because its copy of PCManFM crashes less often.) > > With the best wishes. > Andriy. > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Monitor your physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure from a single > web console.
