Hi,
Is anyone here using
TwinView with NVIDIA graphics drivers under CentOS 5? Just tried this
configuration (I've been using dual monitors as separate X screens in the
past), and while it works in a sense, there are a few issue that will probably
prevent me from using it for real. Notably, which screen new applications start
on (when using the Applications menu or panel launchers) seems to be quite
arbitrary. I expect windows to open on whichever screen I initiated their
creation, I suppose, but they will often appear on the other one.
This is
using the GNOME desktop.
Another slight issue
is with the notification icons. I really want to display duplicates of these, so
I can view them on both screens, but is seems like the Notification Area
doesn't work this way, i.e. it will never display more than one of each icon
even when there are several instances of the area. But this is a problem I also
have when using separate X screens.
So, what are other
people's experiences with a dual monitor setup?
