Lightweight and mostly just gets out of the way. However I've had no luck getting it to support an extended (Xinerama) desktop, though I've found reference to people praising its implementation. The tour (http://www.xfce.org/about/tour) mentions that it handles this, though the screenshot of the config app gives no indication of how, and that's the config app I've got. Anyone have any ideas? Or decent resources that explain all the hidden knobs and buttons? One thing I did find, which is excellent, is <Windows>-P to quickly configure which display to use. Excellent because I'm regularly switching between laptop and desktop mode. But I want to be able to use both screens when I'm connected! -- Simon Rumble <[email protected]> -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
