I have three monitors run by two video cards. Since I can't get xinerama to work, I have to basically run two concurrent x sessions, so my two 17" monitors act as one large screen (which sucks, but that's all I can get the nvidia drivers to do) in one x session, and my 22.5" monitor is it's own screen on it's own x session. Since the larger monitor is my primary, all my desktop icons go there. Anything that goes into /home/username/Desktop goes to the desktop on my primary screen.
Yesterday I noticed an "untitled folder" sitting on the secondary desktop. I renamed the folder to something unique and did a search for it and found that it's sitting right there in /home/username/Desktop like anything else. What controls which files and folders appear where? ls -al shows me no difference between that folder and any other folder. I'd love to get some desktop shortcuts over to that second x session, but I've been poking around in .gnome2 for almost an hour and just can't figure it out. -- John D.
