Hi, There we go again, either my X11 environment has decided to act up again OR I simply am imagining that something once worked and now does not any longer.
My set-up is a 13" MBP with an external 1080p monitor that is my main screen. I'm quite certain that I have been able to use my window manager's (XFWM4) "maximisation" button as well as the fullscreen (typically F11) function in individual applications to maximise a window on the (big) monitor it was being rendered on. I'm certain I did that several times in an X11 terminal in the past couple of years, in order to view long lines in a text editor. I'm also certain that I already tested watching videos fullscreen on that 1080p monitor. Today I noticed that fullscreen mode just spans my 2 screens. But when I look at the XQuartz code I see no confirmation that this could ever have worked, and from what I read, the XINERAMA extension is supposed to do exactly what I am now seeing. But without XINERAMA the server will apparently simply provide 2 separate screens and disallow moving windows between them. What am I overlooking here? I'm currently running a custom version of MacPorts's port:xorg-server-devel v 1.20.10 with a number of tweaks, including one that (according to my notes) fixes pseudoramix from being broken by a patch from the mainstream port. I already tried all older versions I kept deactivated, but they all behave the same. Is there anyone for whom maximisation *does* work on a per-screen basis and if so, what xorg-server version and with what window manager? Thanks in advance, R. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
