Using suse 11.0 (kde 3.5.9-65.2) I'm experiencing window focus and missing
window frame problems on the second display when using kde. The mouse can
cut and paste into applications on either display. The problems do not
happen when using suse 10.2 (kde 3.5.5-102.11). They also do not happen
when using twm under suse 11.0. I've experienced these problems both with
and without the ati driver. The displays are running with Xinerama off and
Clone off.

I had this regression between KDE 3.5.7 (10.3) and 3.5.9 (11.0) too. In a
setup with tv and monitor as two seperate screens. Using Nvidia blob.

No idea what caused it - and never found a fix. Iirc I was told that non-
xinerama setups had never really been supported - only in a hackish way. The
same setup worked well with both gnome and xfce btw... but of course using
either of those is not an option.

So now I just switch xorg.conf and restart X - I can live with that since I
don't use the tv-out that much. I plan on trying it again with 4.2. As I
understand it, there should be some dual head improvements there.
