Hm. Randr is clearly still active. But the output also shows that Randr
had the second display disabled, and is fully aware of this fact... So
at least no inconsistencies.
You probably want to complain at the mailing lists of the according
programs. I dunno why they have to interfere with RandR, there should
not be a reason to until told by the user. Maybe they think if doing
fullscreen there should be only one screen running. IMHO completely
broken concept.
