06:07.03 yukonbob if anybody has a dual monitor setup (off single card, preferably, like a laptop w/ connected display and VGA out), would they mind testing mged on a specific xorg.conf for me?
06:28.23 poolio yukonbob: I can later if you post it somewhere. I've got an Asus W3J that sometimes works that I can hook up to an external LCD.
06:29.59 yukonbob poolio: cool -- I've got a new (to me) setup where I use two screens from w/i the X configuration (ie: not a shared screen, or Xinerama, etc), so I've got DISPLAY vars that are :0.0, and :0.1, but mged crashes in :0.1 (well, fails to start, with error)
06:31.09 yukonbob I used to use a shared screen setup across two monitors, and that works np, but this one gives:
06:31.12 yukonbob X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 1 (X_CreateWindow) Serial number of failed request: 32 Current serial number in output stream: 35
06:31.34 yukonbob so it'd be nice to see if it's only me, or this type of setup...
06:43.49 poolio yukonbob: Yes I used to get that error. No, I did not investigate, just used it on the first desktop. (It should work on the :0 display)
06:44.16 poolio I'm going to sleep, I'll be around tomorrow if you'd like me to test with my config / your config.

18:53.27 ``Erik unless nvidia went and weirded it up (like they did with everything else, 'cept xaa)
18:54.57 yukonbob xinerama is one way to do it, afaik, but there are other ways that aren't "Xinerama" (iiuc)
18:55.27 ``Erik okie, it's been a while since I've looked at it :)
