With the help of Alex and Michel, I think I tracked this down to the incompatible Xinerama implementations between Zaphod and XRandR. While each of them works fine in isolation, once you enable Zaphod, XRandR simply won't emulate Xinerama. My window manager (awesome) apparently only has Xinerama support, not XRandR support. http://awesome.naquadah.org/bugs/index.php?do=details&task_id=518 -- martin | http://madduck.net/ | http://two.sentenc.es/ "for art to exist, for any sort of aesthetic activity or perception to exist, a certain physiological precondition is indispensable: intoxication." -- friedrich nietzsche spamtraps: [email protected]
