I think this is likely to be a bit more specific to your particular setup than a general 'there's one magic trick to make it work with more than 2 monitors' thing, so if I were you I'd probably file a bug with all the usual information for your specific configuration and see where that goes. But the main thing I wanted to say is, the change in F25 is only a change of *defaults*. For many reasons, the proprietary driver case being a major one, there is still a GNOME-on-X11 session choice in F25 Workstation installs. It's just not the *default* choice any more. So you can certainly still use the proprietary driver with F25 if you want; just switch from the default session to the X11 session in GDM when logging in. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
