Hi, I am going to try to solve issue #538. So I want to emulate my monitor
setting using something like Xephyr and Xdmx, but qtile keep failing to 
draw on
them. Anybody know the correct way to do this? 

The steps I have tried are:

1. ``Xephyr +extension RANDR -screen 800x600 -ac :1 & Xephyr +extension 
RANDR -screen 800x600 -ac :2 &`` (I also tried without ``+extension RANDR``)
2. ``Xdmx +xinerama -xinput local -display :1 -display :2 -ac :3`` (I also 
tried without ``+xinerama``)
3. ``env DISPLAY=:3 qtile`` (I also tried ``env DIAPLAY=:3.0 qtile``)

In all cases, the emulating screens just keep being blank. But things like
``env DIAPLAY=:3 xterm`` succeeded.

I actually do not quite understand how these X things work. It would be 
great
if somebody can tell me the correct way. The monitor setting I tried to 
emulate is
that there are two monitors, and the right one is the primary one.
