I can only assume that the problem is that you're setting screen = 2 in somewhere in shifty.config and that breaks when running only on LVDS? Yup, exactly. Without the fix, all I can say is that windows with matches for the tags on the non-existent screen became inacessible--the apps are still running, but I could not figure out how to get the windows to show up. It was mildly frustrating. There was also some debug spew in .xsesion-errors, but I have no record of it right now. Btw, I've been using this sort of statement in rc.lua to force screen in various settings (shifty, naughty etc.) on my laptop, but I have to admit that I don't use multi-screen every day: if screen.count() == 2 then LCD = 2 else LCD = 1 end Your solution might make more sense - shifty is supposed to be dynamic, so validation of screen could be done internally. See it as guarding against user error--creating tags on non-existing screens is kind of pointless. On top of that, this fix makes dynamic dual-screen setups work with relative ease. What's not to like? :) Andreas signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Also, please let me know if you experience any other issues/weirdness with multi-screen setup and shifty - testing that properly is high on my todo list and I could definitely use some hints from someone who uses multiple screens on a more regular basis. cheers, koniu -- To unsubscribe, send mail to awesome-devel-unsubscr...@naquadah.org.
