Ahhh cool, that sounds more simple than the scenario I was imagining with a virtual desktop per display. Doesn't that sort of break things that want to run in fullscreen mode ? How does it behave if something (for example a game or dvd playback ) tries to go fullscreen (as in no window border) Does it just go fullscreen on the first display (desired operation) or does it try and span both screens.
It will go fullscreen on both displays as effectively they are 1 big display. I don't know if Xinerama fixes this or not... (i'd take a guess that the window manager would need to be Xineram aware) but most people I knew would resize the applications manually.
Thanks Adam
