[opensuse] two monitors not working in open suse 11.0
Dear List, I used to have two monitors working simultaneously (defined in nvidia-settings as "two separate x screens") in open suse 10.3. Now with open suse 11.0, the "secondary" screen behaves in a weird way - windows appear without the "decoration part" (I mean where the x controls are .. "advanced, move to desktop, move, etc.". ) and I am not able to move the windows. Terminal windows just block completely. I am using KDE 3.X Any suggestions..? I thought that maybe it is because of some "leftovers" from my old configuration (I even deleted the file "Desktop1" but it did not help).

I have two monitors attached to nVidia card (GeForce 6600) with nVidia binnary drivers and they work fine, even compiz runs smoothly. All I did after installing openSUSE 11 and adding nVidia repository was configuring the screen through YaST. -- skx, http://skxpl.eu.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I finally got it working, with "nvidia-settings", twinview enabled and a lot of fiddling around. Now I have the panel in only _one_ of the screens, but I conform with that. There was no way I could make it work with two separate x screens.. You were able to do this through sax2 ? .. ok, maybe I'll try that when I have some spare time for suse again. ;) Cheers, Sampsa
