Fix: To make compiz work fine with dual head on Hardy 1. Create compiz-dual.sh script that looks like:
for screenName in :0.0 :0.1 :1.0 :1.1 do xdpyinfo -display $screenName > /dev/null 2>&1 if [ $? -eq 0 ] then DISPLAY=$screenName compiz --only-current-screen & sleep 3 # DISPLAY=$screenName avant-window-navigator & fi done Add execute flag to this script: chmod +x compiz-dual.sh What this script basically does is running separate compiz sessions for each screen. The AWN start is optional (if you need AWN to start on each screen then remove the # from the script above). xdpyinfo command tells if a screen is available. 2. Add compiz-dual.sh to Gnome startup (System->Preferences->Sessions) 3. Disable visual efects: Appearance->Visual effects - Set to None. -- ubuntu gutsy 7.10 / compiz / second xscreen / no keyboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173517 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
