Slowly, but surely, this is driving me insane, so I hope someone out there can help and keep me from getting institutionalized ;)
I have an intel (64bit) box with an ATI Radeon 2400XT card, which supports dual-head, running on OpenSolaris 2009.06 (111b). I've tried all kinds of xorg.conf variations, but for the life of me I can't get X/gnome to do the following: - show one big desktop that spans my two (identical) monitors from left to right - when I click the "maximize" button on a window, maximize that window [i]only to the monitor that it's on[/i], not the entire desktop (ie not across 2 monitors). - don't make dialog windows appear in the center of the desktop (where they're spilt between my two screens), but in the middle of [i]one screen or the other[/i] I feel like I've tried almost everything, BigDesktop, Xinerama, XRandR, etc., but nothing seems to give me all three things listed above. I've even had a configuration that made it so that if you crossed the screen border from monitor a to b, the mouse would get stuck on b, and would be unable to back to a! There are lots of forum questions and howto's out there, but I've tried a bunch unsuccessfully, and they're all for Linux, not OSol. So now my question: can someone explain to me (or point me to an explanation of) how I can get my dual-head setup to work correctly? I don't want to have to choose between not being able to use the maximize button or jailing my cursor on my right screen ;) Thanks in advance, Maarten[i][/i][i][/i][i][/i][i][/i][u][/u][b][/b] -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
